Where are you moving to? Omaha or Lincoln?
Oh, and we don't have vehicle inspections here in Nebraska!

Back to Offutt, we've been there before (truck hasn't). However everything is TX registered.
I am an RC-135 EWO, as they say, once you get Offutt, you never get "off it"
I escaped for an instructor stint at Nellis, a HQ job at Langley, a year of PME, and now back to Mother Offutt as a DO, so at least the jobs are flowing!

Good looking truck and seems to be solid too. I like the stance also. Are you going to paint it once you get moved or just enjoy it as-is?

I haven't driven it enough since I took it out of storage, but it used to get 12 with a crazy teenager/20 something driving.
That used to be with a 600 Holley, but also with 36 inch Swampers, so I'd say the 750 and the smaller tires are probably a wash.
