My two bumps...

Post by happycamper »

Towjam and snowjam; as my wife calls them. Brownie smelled like towjam inside when I got it and whitey had to rhyme somehow. $2000 for towjam and $800 for whitey. Whitey only has 54,000 orig. miles. I did the interior on both as the California sun fried them both nicely, but the paint on both managed to survive with good old fashioned elbow grease.

Nothing beats those areas of rust free cars and trucks. Great examples of the bumps there

Those two trucks look great.

Why is it that the trucks are always the best running vehicles in the family?

toe and snow are ok by me. you rust free guys don't know how good you have it. either of those look like 4 to 5k trucks here.

Good evening HappyCamper,

Your two trucks sure look preserved and healthy!

I actually meant to post to congratulate you on having such hilarious truck names, but I forgot to until now. I laughed big-time after reading them, and enjoyed hearing them being said over and over again in my head, "Toejam and Snowjam...Toejam and Snowjam!!!" :lol: Absolutely five-stars!!! You can be sure that you're the only guy on Earth with trucks by those names!

Most of us would be happy to have one truck in that condition. I've always said "why be picky, when you can be greedy". Very nice trucks.
