I got some lights on temporarily, and upgraded the tranny cooler. Been sleeping in it every weekend

That's a hell of a slope you're parked on. Must have a real good parking brake!

Seriously, nice truck. What kind of lift is that?

SARguru, that is an awesome set up! Yes, something that can provide that space is definitely my goal.
My mistake, i got a 1200W inverter (not 4000 haha), and it powered the printer just fine, my corded drill can drill screws into wood, but does not have any measurable torque, probably would go pneumatic if I had the chance.
Also got her rust proofed and undercoated, since I live on the coast.

Hello everyone!
So I recently acquired a 1989 V2500 Suburban for $750. This vehicle was the first rig the SAR group I belong (www.mwave.org) acquired back in the day so it has the very low mileage of barely 16,000 on it since it was only used on searches since 1992. It has been well maintained and been pretty reliable; we have too many rigs now verses 20+ years ago so I bought it.

Thanks!
I found out the AC doesn't work; but talking to some of our members who have worked on the rig in the past told me the system was vaccumed in preparation for a R134 conversion so I just finished that up and now it runs. I need to figure out why the electric locks are not working; I'm thinking its just a wire unplugged somewhere knowing of what the rig has been thru during a previous upgrade of radio equipment.

just a quick update, i have improvised a workstation in the suburban, needs a lot more work, but at the end of the day, it got the job done
Passenger side is wrecked, but it drives great. I'm not too worried about beauty at this point lol
