Baby Steps

My first priorities with this truck are to first make it MVA compliant, and then to make it a reliable daily driver.

I managed to AirCare it with no problems, and was please to learn that all the brakes needed were new bulbs.
I got the engine oil swapped out as it was sitting for a couple of years without running.
The only key I got with the truck was broken so I couldn't put it on a key chain, and was looking pretty worn out. I pulled the lock cylinders and took them too a locksmith. They were able to cut new keys. They also replaced some of the tumblers that were showing wear since they had them out. This cost $155.00. It may seem like too much money, but losing the only key at the wrong time can cost a whole lot more.
