my truck died today. the computer went to **** the alternator went bad. turbo is leakin. the injectors are worn out. its kinda weird that it all happened in one day. i parked her next to our old farm house and thats where she's gonna stay. im only 17 so im not gonna spend money to fix her cuz ill need if for college or im might save for a newer one when i graduate. so now im depressed and i dont have a diesel truck to drive. im lost.

its a 1999.5 and its got around 465,000. its had a kinda ruff life cuz my dad used it on the farm and didnt take real good care of it until i got old enough to take care of it. it just got tired and worn out and i dont think its worth fixin. it does need some work

i can get some for ya by tomarow. im gonna take the leveling kit, exhaust and chip out. then ill just put the stock exhaust back on. its got some rust and a few dents and scrathes but it looks decent for what its been through. this truck has been through more crap than anything ive ever seen.
