    Dogs are Hunting Partners - Let's see 'em

    I think my wife has ruined my tracking dog. I'll have to pry him off the couch. We had to put our German shepherd down a few months back, and now this gsp has taken her place.

    What trucks do you regret selling?

    I think that's why it's already so reliable. It's an 87 model, so it's the first year of factory fuel injection. Dead simple, weak as pond water, but will crank up and cruise the highway at 75mph any time I want it to.

    That plus the transmission below it will be my attempt to modernize the truck. It's an aluminum 5.3 and 4l80e transmission. The only holdup is 97k miles hasn't been enough to make the original 350 show any signs of not being reliable.

    What trucks do you regret selling?

    Man, after a trip to the dealership over a failed software update this week, I'm kinda questioning this 2024 model. It kinda turned me off even more to the new GM technology. That new 6.6 does look tempting though.
