I bought new a '81 Diesel Toyota Pickup on a whim. I thought it was unique and wanted an economical errand vehicle to run to town for supplies (i am cheap). Two wheel drive. Standard rear axle. Anytime you got off of asphalt or gravel you were at risk of getting stuck. The only thing I did to it was better tires and an inline fuel heater just before the filter/water separator which I insulated also.

Hit three deer on separate occasions. Got rear ended by a Volvo. It got great fuel millage. But it was boring to say the least. Wish I still had it, but I don't know why really. I have a 2001 Ranger Edge for that duty now. Did I say the LC loves gas?


Gun Shows are almost as comical as boat ramps in the Spring.

I'm currently still racking up the miles on my 2007 LBZ Duramax 2500 SLT Sierra. For my needs of pulling my fifth wheel camper to jobsites all over it does a wonderful job and is virtually bullet proof. I had the trans completely gone through earlier this year after a freak oil cooler line rupture due to a kinked metal line caused by hitting a deer a couple years ago. I had a billet DTC triple disc converter put in as the factory converter is a know weak link. It's been tuned and deleted and gets 17-18 mpg pulling a 31' fifth wheel camper and 22-23 mpg empty.
