I have used it to haul lumber mulch and stone. The bed is a little scratched up. The paint is in excellent condition but there is a couple rock chips here and there. Nothing you would see unless youare less than two feet away. The engine and transmission work flawlessly. No major mechanical issues that I know of. Has been a good vehicle over the years and has many more years left for the next owner.I have always garaged it and did my best to take very good care of it. I have tried to retain the original look of the vehicle without going over board. This truck is a headturner. Unfortunately you cannot go to the store without someone wanting to talk about how nice it is. I have started the bidding well below the appraisal value of the vehicle.
