OWNER SAYS: â€œI purchased this truck from the original owner about a year ago with 160,000 miles.Â*Since then, itâ€™s been my goal to have a solid daily driver that has good, efficient power.Â*I feel anyone can make a truck smoke like a train, but very few people canÂ*tune one down to pure smokeless power.Â*I love the classicÂ*look of the old first-gens and the legendary 12-valve that comes under the hood.Â*Future mods will include a killer dowel pin fix (I already have the KDP kit), a new high-performance clutch, and possibly an S300 turbo.Â*This truck has been a huge learning experienceÂ*for me, and I look forward to learning a lot more along my journey.Â*Keep up the good work with the magazine, and thanks for the issues with first-gen articles.Â*Keep it up!â€
