This truck as been very well taken care of, and I have had to do very little work to it. Everything works, and the truck is very reliable. It has never been in the mud, or abused, but it has not been babied either. I haul firewood, pull a car trailer, and take the truck in the woods very often. I have driven it to Tennessee and back multiple times.
Truck is located in zip code 24153, near Roanoke, Virginia.
