some people are into mods that make the vehicle perform / ride better VS lots and ots of visual effects that do nothing for performance / ride

all the others just look like they added some heavy gaudy wheels to their trucks, which just make them slower.

how about a mod list for each truck? or is this just an all show, no go type of contest?

You guys are getting hung up on mods. Never has the degree of mods been a factor for being nominated. In fact, very well maintained older trucks that are virtually stock have been nominated. If in your voting criteria, the degree of mods is a factor, then so be it, but there will never be a list of mods as part of the contest. It is not a contest to see which truck is the heaviest modded, but just a contest of which truck do you like the best.

IF you're concerned about a mod list, check out the truck's profile. Some people have their mods listed in their garage. Along with more photos.

Exactly, and that is why voters are encouraged almost every month to check the albums.

i never meant to sound like i thought it was a mod list contest, but its nice to know what has been done, because often you cant see modifications in one single photo of a truck, which looks like cell phone pics sometimes also. sometimes that makes some trucks more appealing.

although i'm terribly partial to black lightnings

I wasn't saying Tarajerame's truck was any less awesome then the others because it seemed to me visually "stock" I was just curious as to what was done. He sent me a list and alot of performance stuff is done and thats cool. I'm more of a GO then show person anyway but both are awesome. I wasnt tying to say "why would his stock looking truck be in the contest" more of just not sure what was done to it.

There were a few trucks here that were tough to choose from. But I voted for the Black SVT. Good luck Tarajerame
