Hey all! I have been seriously bad about keeping the thread updated. I promise to post soon with some photos and an update. Short version is that the truck is in Stockton with @orangefj45 and coming along great! More to come very soon!

Sorry for the seriously belated message @dmartnevada. Sent you a direct message.

Hey all - got the cruiser home on Sunday night/Monday AM. Loooong drive from Montana to Reno. I've got an appt at Valley Hybrids on Feb 24th, so trying to scour the threads here and really figure out what I want to do. So much great info here. I've got a long list of items I need to...
