Yeah, mine's a diesel also. With the 4WD and 2.2 diesel, it makes a great little buggy around the farm. I use it like an oversized wheel-barrow. It's so small, I can get into tight places my bigger trucks won't fit.
About the frame - yeah, they are usually a mess. My truck, believe it or not, only has 55,000 original miles on it and it's a 1985. A large construction company bought it new and never put plates on it. They used in a large contruction material storage yard and used it for transporting materials around, for years. The frame completely rusted out, and they put it in their welding shop one winter - and completely re-did the entire frame. They did a really good job, but I suspect the little truck is a lot heavier now. Exspecially with the diamond plate steel bed in back and the pipe racks. That being said, going down the road it gets 27-30 MPG and it has no overdrive (wish it did). Just a 4 speed manual trans. The 3.41 axles make the engine humm a bit at 65 MPH.

"Run in the house and get me a...."as I open th
