Lol
Same here
But I feel it's better to try and get what you like rather than wish you could have later
It's only more time and money

 

[chevytuf01]

Try having a puller that doesn't run yet and playing with the idea of building the engine in your dd/tow rig....

Is that your truck at the buck in your avatar? It looks familar
