New guy from Wisconsin...
«

Greetings from Milwaukee, I'm Stew. In the past I've has a '79 Dodge Power Wagon (1/2 ton, 360, auto, full time 4wd, short box, 31's,) and a 1988 F150 (4x4, 351W C6, short box, dual shocks, sway bars, stupid fast and obnoxious loud.) I grew up in an '87 Suburban. Spent a lot of time in that truck as a kid and drove it a lot the first few years I had a license. I recently sold my 2000 2wd, 4cyl auto S10 for more house buyin' money, and got into this dirt cheap. It's gonna suck feeding it, but it's awesome to have a daily that falls into the "toy" category. It feels soooo good to be rolling around in an old school truck again. This truck is an '86 3/4 ton, 350, auto, headers, Eddy intake and truck avenger 550 (I think,) and junky homemade duals. No big plans for it (yet) other than proper dual exhaust and working out the bugs that have developed while it sat for the last 6 years.

Family is not an important thing. It's everything.
