And looking to replace a Chevy truck for under 10k, so if you know of a good one please let me know. The old Fishwagon needs seat covers so I guess it's time to break up with her 😢
fishinwrench Posted June 20, 2018 Author Posted June 20, 2018 If I enjoyed restoring trucks 1/2 as much as I do boats then it would be a perfect candidate. Always mechanically maintained and one heck of a truck, just getting too tired to trust for trips away from home. She's more happy staying in the yard moving boats around until I run into someone with enough ambition to freshen her up. Currently the G80 Locker rear-end is showing signs of wanting to explode (as they are known to do occasionally). snagged in outlet 3 1
Harps Posted June 20, 2018 Posted June 20, 2018 So the 'miraculous recovery' of the locker was short-lived?

It hasn't stayed locked up again, but I hear a slight howl at 30-40mph coming from the differential. I don't trust it, and I can't be without a truck for several days right now. The Suburban is worthless for moving boats around with.
snagged in outlet 3 Posted June 20, 2018 Posted June 20, 2018 I sold a Yukon with the same trouble back in 2013. It had 240,000 on it and was nickel and dimeing me to death and when I started hearing that I got rid of it.

Can't complain because I've used this truck heavily for 15 years. Never left me stranded or been stuck, and that sure ain't for a lack of trying. It's towed everything from Bass boats to 46' barges. Truck shopping is bumming me out bad though. Everything in my price range is high mileage, has too many doors, and has almost as many issues. I'm sick of looking at buses with a box on the back. Where are all the standard cab work trucks at? 🤔
snagged in outlet 3 Posted June 20, 2018 Posted June 20, 2018 Truck prices are ridiculous. That's why Ford canceled a bunch of their car production.
