Why you never buy a young guys truck

I was going threw a few of my pics tonight and found this one.  This is my 92 dodge I used to have.  I miss this truck. It had the 5.2 with a 5spd. I sold it with just under 250K on it and the engine had never been out. I took good care of it, Maintenance wise. But I beat the living shnit out of it.  LOL.  My friend took this pic.  Oh happy days.

I sold it not to long after I was messing around and ended up sideways into two railroad ties being used as fence posts.  It messed up the driver side pretty good.

The RC I have now has not experienced any of this from me. Past owners. Who knows.  But I have grown up from the old days.       .....At least thats what i try to tell myself.

Not been off the ground with all four wheels but I can't count the times from back in the younger days that I took highway exit's on 3 wheels with my VW pocket rockets....

NOS is nice, turbo's are neat, but when it comes to Mopars, there's no need to cheat...

The only 4x4 I haven't jumped like that yet in my Dakota, which is my current truck. It will happen someday though once the lift kit is in, as I believe in using my 4x4s.

I don't jump my truck because with my luck I would break something expensive (which seems to be happening lately) but I do this to it.


Anyone want to guess how much that weighed?

Hence your need a couple of weeks ago to take a midnight cruise through a hundred miles of no mans land in the freezing cold in a vehicle with no protection from the elements?  :icon_smile_wink: :D

600 pounds? :shruggy:

I like that shot of the S-10 with all four off the ground. :lol:

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

Your about half way there. My lightest load that day was 800 pounds and that was just the landing gear off of the two trailers and some frame pieces.
