Paul, I do stick around and pop my head in every now and again. I miss you guys. 
Here is a few fun stories. The guy that bought my truck that lives in upstate new york stopped by a few sunday afternoons ago and we spend an hour or so chatting. He has done pretty much all the rest of the things I wanted to do to the truck.
He found an original GMC tailgate with the same blue patina as mine. Looks like it has been on the truck forever. He had all the dents taken out from a PDR guy, so no damage to that patina look. He did some maint items. The big item is he put in an oak bed with the Stainless steel strips. Man that has too look awesome.
Most importantly he drives the truck. He doesn't in the winter as it gets treated royally and sits in a nice garage. But after the salt up there he drives it all over. Loves the truck! That makes me happy.
Another fun story, since we had some nice rains lately that washed all the salt off the roads they put down for the big ice storm that never happened, we took the old car out for a few hours sunday. Makes me happy to get the whole family in and go for a cruise. We had a blast!
Anyways just some fun stories.
I enjoy reading your updates and the progress you have made on the GMC. Keep it up. And man when you said you were going 60MPH the other day that made me think you are crazy, then I remember you had the colorado rear end
My old 5.14's would handle 60
