It was honestly fine. I felt safer from covid on this entire trip than I do going to Walmart locally. And where we were, the “protestors” were not around.

Oh I'm sure, that was more tongue in cheek. I've been to both cities in the past and have no desire to ever return, regardless of what's going on. The PNW as a whole is a beautiful place, lots great scenery, ok temps, and rust free vehicles when you get away from the coast!

The county I live in has had a total of 44 cases since the beginning, we don't worry about much here, and living in the country in the midwest definitely has it's perks!

So all of our trucks at one point had a set of frame tags on them. My truck had a partial one left but the other one was missing. I’ve been trying to figure out the correct one for my truck, and have been collecting ones that I think are correct.

So for example. All 96 year extended cab short bed K 1500 trucks I Have come across have the SFJ tag. All of the 97K1500 ECSB trucks I’ve found have SLN.

My theory is that these were production and identification tags used during frame assembly and shipment, and as a quick check for the assembly line to make sure they had the correct chassis for that particular build that day. Much easier to see a tag on the chassis than to go looking for the small part number located above the passenger rear axle. But this is just a theory.

So now I record the vin and tag number on all 96 trucks I find in hopes of determining if this is the correct tag for my truck.

How desirable are those 88-94 cupholders?
I swear, I would score big like you do but I don't have any place to put anything. Had to pass up a complete set of 6-lug Eagle Alloy rims because I didn't have anywhere to put them.

It’s a challenge for sure. I try to stick to small stuff for that very reason. I’m tripping over bumpers.
