Is your exhaust rotted out?

Re: My New Tow Rig ... Making the jump to the other side ...
Thank You ... My wife was unsure about the color combo at first .. But I liked it , and I was gonna be using primarily ...
The exhaust is starting to come undone , clamps are tight .. rusting out , and muffler is puffed up from what looks like it backfired .. |

Re: My New Tow Rig ... Making the jump to the other side ...
Love your 'Burb. A square 'Burb has been calling me, I've bid on a few. I'd love to have one in my drive but need to hold out until I find one of the steals you guys love to share. Big fan of the rallies and most any color as long as it's stock - looking forward to seeing it after the cut-n-buff. Great score.

Sounds like a steal at $1200! Good Job!! It is a good looking truck - the perfect family hauler.
