Nice how many miles it have on it? I almost wish I would've gone that route rather than low mile.....oh well. haha, Sounds like a sweet buy. Considering LT's, cai, full exhaust, and wheels tires will cost more than what you paid for haha! Congrats!

Nice! You can thank the storm for a free upgrade! Well premiums don't go up from natural disasters, or do they?

I wouldent think so, but then again Ive never had one happen to me.

But a natural disaster isnt your fault, so I dont see why they would...
