Nu shox for Dakota. KYB GR-2. Race truck.

Rides like a new truck now. No more floaty boaty.

Only had to notch out the frame about 1/2" on each side, because the axle is not stock.

Dakota is basically the best ever. Doge room in back, 21 MPG, air cond., tractor engine, nice shifter action, sweet boom boom stereo, supreme tires, gnu shox, big piece of chrome on the tip like a prince albert ... must be time for something to break.

Well, it's not great for a 4cyl/2wd/5spd. It varies from 18-22. GMC gets 13.

Ideally, I'd have a Jaguar XJ6 on hand for when I have company.

Fuck it. I want to move to Vermont.

Fuck it, the entire Northeast had invasive vehicle "safety" and "emissions" inspections. I want to move to Wyoming.

Fuck it. I'm going to claim South Dakota residency and move to Maine.

Okay, I'm going to start selling all of my personal belongings, aside from what I can take with me in one moving Pod and the back of Dakota.

Dakota .... South Dakota ... it all makes sense!

I think I'm going to sell Ranger for diddly squat. Like $800. Come and get it.

Eye of the Tiger

Let's say that Ranger isn't worth selling, cuz it ain't. Race truck?

Fast fax: Ranger weighs about 2500#, and it would be relatively easy to give it 300 HP. That would be scary AF. Should try.

Blow through carburetor? Thought about it. The engine is in great shape, it's just 70 HP with the 1bbl carb.

But for 300 HP I was thinking SBC+TH350.

Plan #D:
Sell all trucks and LAND. Take Fiesta and move somewhere for geology. Sell House. Fuck South Carolona.

Is there no Geo to Logy in SC?
Maybe we need to start off small. I mean, they don't let you fuck the glumpers at Glumpees without a level 4 FuckPass, do they?

Some, but not much. The Northeast has a ton, and Texas has a ton. I'd go back Northeast, closer to family.

Maybe I can get a job in NYC and live in PA. I'd get rich, right?

South Carolina was created by GOD in 4000 B.C. and nick keeps wondering why there aren't more fossils of people riding dinosaurs where he is.

I dunno, I think I should keep GMC. I bet it could pass an inspextion up north if I replaced the bed, added a rear bumper, and a cadillac converter.

The cheapest round trip flight to Sioux Falls is $318. Totally worth it to become a resident.
