Jumping in with the guys!

That’s the plan. I’d prefer to drive her than my 2018 Mazda right now.
She has a new muffler, rear brakes, serpentine belt...picked her up fur next to nothing 153K. She’s my bum around truck and I’m a ton. Going to get this straightened out then replace headliner next!

Sounds like you got a good deal.

I paid 375 bucks for mine and have over 1000 into just getting it running lol.

I would follow that radiator hose toward the engine/water pump. If you suspect it's leaking from the upper clamp... look on the lower side of the water pump... there is a vent hole. When the pump wears out... the vent hole will spit coolant. Get a flashlight in there and see if you can see a trail of coolant. The mileage on the engine says... if that pump hasn't been replaced yet... it will probably need to be soon.

Trains are absolutely real. Railroads are not.
