Welcome Back Ryan, Long Time No Hear
We just sent your '91 Toy pickup to Pennsylvania, but that tranny finally gave out somewhere outside of St. Louis. Long story I'll have to tell ya someday.
As for Ghost Town exploring, I highly advise getting a good book that has maps AND you can read the history while you're there AS WELL AS see the town layout (in the day). It makes things much more enjoyable IMO than just pulling up and looking at stacked rocks.
That being said, I like Metropolis by Wells. But if you haven't been to Bodie, that should be your first trip. Come in from Smith Valley if you don't like the "Welcome to Ca." sign.

Hey Paul! Sorry to hear about the transmission. How many miles are on that thing now? I miss that truck a LOT, that was my baby! I have Stanley Pahers "Nevada Ghost Towns and Mining Camps" and some other history books, and they WILL be traveling with me 
Good to hear from you!

Check the stickies at the top of the forum there is one called the book shelf. Lots of good books listed there.
