So it’s 200k or 300k? Maybe more?

Now that you are a man of leisure why do you need a truck ? ;D
It's just a temptation to move something. ;D

I find that now, since I sold my truck, my vehicle has more crap in the back than my truck ever did! If I buy another vehicle before I die, it’s probably gonna be another truck!
