Ding in the truck happened behind the warehouse of the printing company I work for.
I am trying to decide if I get if fixed or put the money towards a 2500 series diesel given that I drive 20-22k a year and tow ~75x a year (if not more). My truck already has close to 125k on it.

If your current truck is a diesel keep it and fix it! New ones are too damn expensive. Just replaced my diesel truck this past spring and went back to gas since I have a company truck and really don't tow much except in the fall. If you want to fix it let me know and I can get you in touch with a friend or mine that runs a body shop and could probably do it under the table. Does beautiful work.i was just looking at xl 259 super duty and a stripped model was around $65,000. If you want to go fird also let me know as I am good friends with owners of academy ford in laurel. What printing co. Do you work for, I do the HVAC work at several.

Mike, he has the same truck I have (same year, same color). I had to rush back to the parking lot at SP on Sunday and beat Greg there. I was afraid if he got back before me, he would swap out quarter panels from my truck

When does Brennan get his license? You could get yourself a new 2500 Duramax and pass your truck onto your son.
I saw your truck at the park on Sunday, but didn't think it was yours at first until I saw the sticker in the window.

I am looking at two used trucks or repair my Tundra. Both used trucks are 2007s. One is a dodge Cummins with 85k with the 5.9 and the other is a duramax with 124k. My truck is a gas 2011 with 125k. Needs $2500 in repairs but it is paid for. Ha
I get 7-8mpgs towing. I got 12mpgs with my dads 2010 dmax
Printing company is www.trayinc.com.
Brennan gets his license this summer. No gas guzzlers for him.

I am fishing the 26th out of Southern MD. Rain early in the am, then sun and light winds. I will likely run over the VA line to troll for some slobs and come back into the river and jig.

Possibly trying to fish out of Southern MD tomorrow. Only hold back is that I have broken out in hives yesterday and my eyes have swollen. I am hoping the reaction or whatever it is goes away a bit today.
If anyone is possibly looking to fish tomorrow, C&R, message me.

I still have some hives but the eye swelling has gone down. Not fishing tomorrow.
I have room for a few Saturday out of Southern MD! Light tackle jigging.

Before the water temps get too cold and the bite dries up, I am trying for a Southern MD trip this Thursday or Friday
