My K1500 has been a West Virginia mountain runner all it's life. The bed came from down south somewhere. I picked up an almost duplicate parts truck last week. The only body panel not rotten is the hood. At least I can loose the black hood. Was told it was a G80 rear, no joy so still looking.

That's why I have to get the tractor running. There's more fallen there and a couple of huge locusts i have to pull yet. Getting them down the mountains to the flats is tough.

What kind of tractor do you have? I have a few classics... 1937 Allis Chalmers B with a 6ft belly mower, 1939 John Deere A with a live hydraulic pump and bucket, and a 1942 Farmall H parade ready.

A 1973 International 656? diesel. And a big 1993 Belarus 4wd diesel. I can never get the model numbers right.

Like me, mine's semi-retired Maybe permanently, at least until gas prices come down

I thought you had Lean Cruise. I take it not lean enough.

Yeah, I just filled up the wife's car Wednesday, $4.499/Gal for regular! Mine takes 91 Octane $4.999/Gal at QT! Plus, I have Lean Cruise shut off until I get the engine broke in.

Always had the opinion that if im driving what i want why worry about fuel mileage?
It cost what it costs so i don't look at the price. If it was 5 cents cheaper across the street i would not even know it, But then again i only drive maybe 10 miles a day during the week and maybe a couple hundred on weekends.

Two days ago fuel was 3.39 at Wal-Mart 3.79 across the road. That's in Elkins. Here in the valley it's always .50 per gallon more. So we always fill up when we go shopping.

Here in NZ the price can vary over a dollar per gallon. We use an app called Gaspy that lists the prices at all the gas stations so I always check to see where it will be cheapest on my trip and hold out until I get there to fill up.

You live in the middle of the desert and it's 100mi. just to the gas station? Correct? lol Regular is about $3.40 here.
