Backstory

By: Lyle 05/31/2024

This was my grandpa's truck. He got it from his job at a lumber yard when it was basically brand new (he bought it from the yard in 1997 and the yard bought it brand new in 1995). When he passed in 2006, he gave the truck to my dad. I sat on my grandpa's lap and steered this truck when I was 2 years old to go get ice cream with him. I also learned how to drive in this truck on the back roads with my dad at 14 years old. I am now 22 years old, and the truck is officially mine. It's seen better days, but my plan is to bring it back to life with purpose and pride. It's got 166,700 miles on it currently and runs strong for being an almost 30 year old truck that has some issues and wasn't taken very good care of since my grandpa had it. This truck means more to me than life itself and I will do anything in my power to maintain it's personal value.
