Thank you fellas for your responses. I have a good wife. We went over and looked at it together this afternoon. She was not impressed. I grew up on a dairy farm in the 60's. Well do I remember the first truck dad bought...a '48 Chevy 3/4 ton stake rack(dad was probably 50 years old). It had holes in the cab big enough for a cat to crawl through, but it did everything a new truck would do. Dad believed in paying cash for EVERYTHING and that truck was quite an improvement over the car and trailer it replaced. My wife's position is that, if I were on the farm a truck like that would still make a lot of sense. She "promised" me we'd put our heads together and within a year I'll get a truck she wouldn't be embarassed to take to work if need be. I know that old truck would do all I need it to do, but I suppose a person doesn't always have to be 100% practical. Glenn F.
