AND YES! It is parked in central PHX right behind LUX.
Yup, just like JBFP's neighborhood, Central Phoenix is easily identifiable. I lived approx. 3 miles NW from you at 15th & Missouri. Amazing how even with over 200K on the clock, these trucks can still look/ run good.

want some irony...?
After all this POSI talk about my monty... It sprung a leak today. Went to do a tour of 4 peaks brewery, when I came out there was a nice puddle of coolant.
I figured I could make it home taking it easy... 1/2 way home the entire engine cuts, feels like it doesnt want to shift up and slowly trickled down to zero power. Ignition ticks, lights work but it wont turn.
I think the coolant is a separate issue... I would say the alternator just took a crap on me.

might be a good time to just replace and reclamp all the coolant hoses the couple on the back of the motor can be a pain but if you take the time to remove the intake it'll save you a little bit of cussing.

Hope you get it fixed, castlerox. Monte3, this guy lives right around the corner from me, basically. I already invited him over so he can witness sheer terror at what this hobby gets you into.
Hope you get it fixed, castle.
