Not to be to particular, but the truck from the video is his actually 389 in the same paint scheme. But your are correct, he has a 389 glider than he did up as 379.

I agree with you. When I drove truck back in the late 70's through the late 90's I wore jeans T-shirts button downs boots or tennis shoes. Quite honestly I don't even remember ever wearing shorts. Always shaved comed to my hair even when I wore a hat. Which was most of the time. Always take pride in my appearance. Not to impress anyone but that's just the way it was. I've been watching your videos from day one and I've always thought of you as an old soul. Or a young man with an old school mentality. I'm guessing that's why I enjoy your videos so much. You have a quirky sense of humor as do I. And you take pride in your job and your ride. OH and you've had some really sweet trucks. Yep I miss diesel and I'm sorry for the loss of your other pup. I hope you and your family are doing well. I know it's not easy being gone from them. But thank you for sharing your videos with us. I for one truly appreciate it. Looking forward to seeing the next one.10/4. 👍

@charlesyell6318 fair enough. 90% of my rolling footage is over the hood.
