The color of the truck?

Well, white is the color of all the vehicles in our company fleet. I get a monthly allowance that almost covers full payment, insurance, fuel and maintenance. I pay about the remaining $100 a month to drive and OWN an $80,000 truck.

I figure if they're almost paying for me to have the truck, it can be white if they want it to be!
Heck, I'll even throw the company logo on the rear quarter panel to boot for that!

This is a picture from July of 2015 when a buddy wanted me to go with him so bad, as my TV was in the shop, he agreed to tow it. I can't believe I went for it, but what fun watching peoples reaction.

I was camping last March and a guy pulled in with a Class C towing his old popup for their friends, he said in order to get his friends camping they pulled his old popup for them, looked cool as he pulled in sort of like that

Completely understand. I'm just busting your chops. Lol You have a beautiful set up. If I could figure out how to get my 5er hooked to my company truck I would be in the same boat as you. 😉
