Yeah - This is not making me very happy heh. I'm just having a hard
time justifying keeping the truck. Its not very pratical. I can only
seat 3 people max, its a short box, its not cut out to tow the way I
intended when I bought it, (partially my fault due to the modifications
I made).. and it will never get better than 12 mpg. It costs about $75
a weak in fuel to drive it back and forth to work. (about 70 some miles
a day).

Thanks man - thats what I wanted to know. I'd never done that before
and don't know anyone who has - so I didn't know how it worked.
I'm not dead set on selling either... I'll sell if I get a good offer,
but I'm not out there pounding the pavement pushing it for sale.
