I sold my pig about 6 months ago and miss having that stinky beast around. I'd trade for a pig must run and drive fine. Road ready basically. I don't need a project but I've owned a pig so I know they all need something.

just a thought.

Your troopy is certainly interesting. It looks like they have given it more room inside the bed by dropping the areas around the wheel wells. That would be quite a nice feature. I wouldn't mind trading my pig for your troopy. My pig runs and stops great, and is in similar shape to your troopy. This is sad, but I am calling my 55 the "sacrificial pig" since it is eating all the salt on the roads this winter, while my troop carrier is having a rest. I did hose down the undercarriage on the pig with fluid film, to help protect it a bit. If we lived closer together, maybe we could work something out.

Just curious, what's it like to drive that thing on the road? Let's face it, we all know stock rigs are slow, gas or diesel, but is that thing as low as it looks, or does the diesel do OK? Have you had much experience starting it in the cold?

Picture driving a pig but twice the size with the same engine.

Hmmm....that is kinda tempting...

I've got a heckuva Pig to trade.
