We have owners that have owned their trucks for over 30 years. Think about that for a second young folks, it's maybe before you were even born! I have owned my 1986 MM since 1987, so you all can do the math. I would hate to sell my truck because now it has history with myself and I know every inch of it from tires to sunroof. Every spot, nick, wear mark is mine. It has been more faithful to me then friends or family or any relationship could possibly be. She has only broke down on the road twice in the time I have owned her. First time was an exploded timing belt that literally melted inside the timing cover, no fault of hers I just didn't know the belts were rubber until then, duh. Second time, the lower fan belt pulley bolt somehow backed off while driving and fell out, catching on something on the way out and tried to stop the engine. It caused the crankshaft key to embed itself into the lower timing belt sprocket and timing plate, plus stretched both timing belts. Not a bad record when you consider it is just a piece of metal slapping against metal and covering thousands of miles of roadway.

Give it up? Only from my cold dead hands you will. truckin.jpg
