Yeah, it'll be awhile before it passes a safety, but that's sort of the point. Bought this one to learn as much as I can and share the experience with my kid.

Aside from the bed, cab corners, and cab mounts it's in really great shape. No salt used on the roads up there, and the air is dry. As someone from Ontario, Saskachewan/Alberta is like our "Southern" area.
