I had a 85 Ram 50 4x4 longbed. Good payload and didn't have body roll like the newer high sitting trucks.
Clutch seemed a bit undersized though. That was always the first thing anyone asked about swapping in something beefier.

A set of Firestone "town and Country" tires were a nice fit for the conditions around here.
You just had to realize and accept that those tires were good for about 3~4 years and then they'd start to separate internally.
I wish I could still get them.

View out of my property, not my vehicle though.
RH tires firmly on the main road (illegal in Croatia, jeopardizing traffic safety!).
Owner has a fancied up house and yard two houses down on the opposite side of the road.
He runs some kind of business, hence the big box vehicle.

AITA for not wanting to look at his vehicle parked for hours in front of my property/house?

He once parked directly in front of my main gate, I couldn't enter my yard with my car!

He has been asked politely to not park in front of my property, met deaf ears apparently.

Vehicle unlocked, keys in the ignition.
I'll drive the thing into the ditch in front of his property next time.

If there isn't a chip in the key head, Probably has one though.
Take the keys and go get a copy made.
But make certain the cuts are out of position on the copy.
Dirty up the new key to better resemble the original and then swap it in place of the original key(s).
Put the original key in a safe hiding place on the vehicle.
Just don't lock it inside of the truck.

slash his tires
I considered unscrewing his tire valves and placing them on his dashboard!

Technically no damage caused by me for him to sue.
Yet a inconvenience for him depending on how urgently he needed the vehicle at that moment.

He is the only one not taking notice that the property is no longer abandoned.
He actually seems mad at me for having purchased it and causing him to loose a free though illegal parking spot for his $#itbox.

Key pranks aside for a moment.
I find it interesting that your neighbor is ok with parking his vehicle with the keys in it.
Is the area that safe?
Did the neighbor just figure that you could move the truck out of the way, if he left the key?
Is the guy a sort who (seriously) looses his keys and just decided that leaving it in the van is less of a problem?

I keep my keys in the pocket of whatever pants I wore last and the pants get hung on the bathroom doorknob.
Else-wise, I'd put them down and not have clue where they are when I need them next.

Yes, I have some ADD issues and a few routines are bit of a coping method.

In Lander, WY we leave chainsaws, guns, tools, and keys in the car.

I live in an area where my keys stay in the vehicles same as my equipment

Technically my area is fairly safe, trouble makers are mostly local drunks & social aid folk.

Not locking vehicles is relatively common, same as not locking house doors.
I don't know why it is like this, I guess it simply never was an issue?!

But I feel this will change quickly with the waves of cheap foreign workforce being shipped in through employment agencies.

That’s happening around here too
