New gen 1 owner in CA

Hey guys, glad to be here. Got my '12 from Texas. From what i can tell, the previous owner liked to drive in mud. Underbody needed a good high pressure steam clean... Now good as new

great looking truck! I also got mine in texas and drove it back to CA!

Love the truck!! I'm shopping for one as well. Did you have any issues with Ca emissions buying from Texas?

No problems at all regarding emissions. However couple hoops you have to jump through to register...
-have to weigh the truck. I did it at a truck stop but you can also do at a recycling center.
-vin verification must be done. Avoid the chp (more hassle than it's worth ie must make appointment and be the closest to your home) just do at dmv, no need to even go inside, just pull up to inspection area and wait
-and if course the smog check. Took all of 10 minutes

Welcome!!

I'm secretly hoping that when I do start to look for my truck, I find one that involves a road trip to get it back home. Definitely something on my "automotive bucket list" that I want to check off.

Congrats on the new addition!
