This truck is not inexpensive, but it’s a lot of truck for $7500.

That is a whole lot of truck for the money!  In many ways it is comparable to Big Blue, and I wouldn't part with him for anything near that little.

I think it is an original dual-battery setup or it wouldn't have the coolant recovery reservoir in the right location with the right bracket.  But, that looks like a Bricknose reservoir, not a Bullnose.  And he's rewired between the batteries with a massive cable across the top of the radiator support - unless that's for the winch, which it might be as there's a knife switch on that cable.

It has what looks to be a vacuum gauge under the dash.  And he's somehow gotten a radio of some kind, perhaps the Ham or CB, above the standard radio spot.  And air horns with a compressor mounted in the bed.  And, it has a tach.  And a matching bed topper.

Overall it is better shape than Big Blue, probably because it is a CA truck.  And, he has the sun shades that may have helped a bunch on the UV exposure to the interior.  If someone wants a truck like that then this one has to be a serious contender.

The seller mentions that it has both CB and HAM radio... and that is a good observation regarding the dual batteries. He obviously put some money into it with the rear bumper, grille guard, winch, lights and camper shell. There are a lot of extras. Not all of it is stuff I would choose but it is a nice outfit and priced really well for its condition.

I'm assuming that the CB is one of those radios and the HAM, probably 2 meter, is in the other.  You can see the two mikes hanging there.  And, it is possible that what I took to be a vacuum gauge is an SWR meter for either radio.

He bought it new and has all the documentation, including shop manuals, with it.  That truck would make a really good one for someone.

Oh, now that is nice, especially for $7500.
