When he was preparing for his passing he asked my brother and I about his vehicles and said I will definitely take ownership of the truck as I didn't want it to be sold. I think he was happy about that. It was his daily driver. It was always garaged and has about 67k miles on it right now. I still have all his stuff that he kept in the truck including an oldies CD I made for him which I play on special occasions like his birthday.

It's a great vehicle. So relaxing, so much room, so much utility, and able to go pretty much anywhere. I also love how simple and reliable it is...it doesn't have 1000 fancy gimmicks today's vehicles have that will be a nightmare down the road. Just a fantastic all around vehicle.

Very sorry to hear about your dad. Sounds like he took great care of that truck. It's a beauty. Keep it forever and keep a piece of him with you.

Thanks Loco. I love Nine Line for what they stand for, the support they give back to military charities, and of course their gear and apparel.👍

x2...Luckily, I've been able to go by and talk to Danny(one of the brothers) and some of the others that work in the shop. They are all super cool to chat with. They had an unbelievable sale on Black Friday and so I had to go load up. They're getting ready to move to a larger facility that's closer to my house so I guess I better start clearing space in my dresser..lol
