I found a truck in the American Classified adds and then again on Craig's list. I called the guy he lived in Salmon, I wasn't sure how we would get this completed. He said he would take off a $1000 dollars if I was interested and would buy it right away. Icalled to see how it would work. I called Mike for direction he gave me the o.k. after he ran a vin check for me. We called back and forth as well as e-mailed. (He sent me 22 pictures of the truck in and out.) It came with a Bully Dog chip and on the fly switch. Dillon and Tessa went with me Friday to Idaho Falls at 2:30 p.m. In came a couple of brothers in almost matching trucks with their cow dogs from Salmon, the guy said he had lost his job and things were slow. We test drove it and signed papers there in the I.F. EIFCU. Done deal!
He came right off of the ranch with the truck, I guess he lives out in the country there in Salmon. It had not been detailed inside. He had taken off the seat covers. Soon to come, tool box and front brush guard. (Terri didn't want my stuff in the back seat..) Say, who's truck is this anyway?
After about 2 hours of vacuuming and washing in and out this is the almost end product. Mom says that the tires are 6 ply and must be replaced before Memorial weekend (they are about shot but would last a year). She will be driving this with the enclosed trainer to the hole on the Blackfoot River so it is not an option to her. Hmmmm! I guess I will get new tires tomorrow. I am waiting for the title to clear so I can get it liscensed. Not much else happened this week. Some work issues but I have those every week. It sure was beautiful weather the last two days.

Cool truck! It will look great with your new trailer too!
You look like the happiest Daddy EVER! Cool for you! I'm glad you found one you love!!! Good thing most of your kids moved out and freed up some parking spots! :) You'll need the room to store Ty's truck for the next 51 weeks! :) XOXO
