The First Thousand Miles..
At least for me...
Brought it home the last week of April 2015. One of the first things I did was to have Papanick rebuild the speedometer, which never worked while we've owned the truck..it always read zero miles... I've taken the "work a little,drive a little" approach. Learned plenty, thanks to the Barn and others, and have had lots of fun and some frustration.... But it drives well now and has many more miles left in it... Better re-seal the gas gauge next! Randy
