Loved Jessica doing the monologue, makeup and stuff. Looks like a diamond in the rough. That’s a nice color but I bet it’ll be hard to match up if you have to patch paint it after repairs to some spots. But first you’ll have to get it home. You know you’ve got an air compressor on the truck. Just build up air and hook a hose to the red airline and push your red button in that’ll give as much air as is in the tanks. Might take a bit but I’ve pumped up tires off mine before. Hopefully you’ll get it home next trip. I bet after being there all day y’all went and got some good southern barbecue. Stay safe
