Should I stay away.
A Self-Inflicted Gunshot Wound would be More Fun,.... Than Owning a 30 Year Old OMC 400 Stringer Drive...................<br /><br />And,........ The Medical,... Or Mortuary Bills would be Cheaper than the Parts Bill is going to be....................... ;) <br /><br /><br />Ayuh,................You probably should Run away,.... As Fast,+ as Far as you can Get...........<br /><br />Your Truck is Worth about 5 to 7 Times that boat................
