4/20 for me it wasn’t about bong hits – it was about hitting the open road in Syclone #411 all the way from Nashville, Tennessee. Chris a.k.a. h0twh3els purchased this truck from a respected SyTy enthusiast out in Tennessee. We had plans to fly out together and take turns driving on the way back, a “bro trip” if you will. Things changed this past Monday, when Chris was involved in a pretty serious accident. He asked me if I would be able to go get the truck myself, without hesitation - I agreed to do so.

Here we are now – 17hrs/1000 miles later! Excuse the dust, it rained on the way back and it’s been raining on/off since.

I’ve briefly looked into this truck.

Fact that they were only produced for one year is quite neat and less than 3000 made. Doubt more than half survive after 20 years.

Very cool pickup.

It seems like SY/TY community is diehard enough that there are still quite a few of them out there with the very low production number. Would love to own one myself one day.
