I miss that turning radius more than anything. I could whip that black one in and out and up and down narrow muddy logging trails and never have to worry about having to back out. I also miss knowing I never had to worry about bogging it down. That truck could go anywhere without a hiccup.

Yeh i really enjoy that one. If I wasnt selling it I would route the exhaust out behind the rear axle somewhere and replace the whole driver seat and it would be a comfortable little black beast again. lol
