Sweet.....


Chrome donen't look good on Silver trucks. Well, if it is used in moderation it is fine. I'm planning to do the easy bake headlights and might even ditch the nerf bars for a more aggressive one when I go with bigger rubber. Sharp truck though man, just stay away from the Lund catalog.

I think with a new wheel and bigger tire you should definately change up the look

Yet you have steered clear of their products...

Are you in sales or have a shop here?


Sorry for the hi-jack old man...

Territory Rep for them and about 25 other lines. I handle the Ohio Valley area. I am the liason between shops and the factory. I represent a couple guys that you might be familiar with.

Lund, Deflectashield, Autoventshade, MileMarker Winches, Superlift Suspension, Daystar Products, Putco, Cross Tread, Pro Rac, Dual Liner, and many more.

I worked at Trail Blazers for the last 5 years and moved on to this and love it.

D, How's that toolbox of yours holding up? I went to TT earlier and the guy was showing me a Trailboss chest and was telling me that it's just as good as weatherguard. Then he opened it to show me the room inside and it wouldn't close

I think I'm just gonna hold out for the TSC Black chest whenever they come in.

How's it going drew? You sold that SC yet?

I am not quite to the 40 point yet, and that thing looks kind of stodgy to me. A few things I notice.

#1. Chrome. Chrome, Chrome, Chrome. Makes it look like a 1970's "Deluxe" edition pickup. Chrome doesn't make it any better, and tends to look stodgy if done wrong.

#2. Stance. Just SCREAMS stocker. Level that thing up. Either pick up the nose, or drop the rear. Actually since it is a 2wd, drop both ends...

#3. Shoes. Stock wheels and tires? Yep. Old... I mean seriously. White letters?

#4. Dallas Cowboys and Browning stickers in the rear window. Not that I am saying anything bad about them, but they are pretty old school.

#5. Diamond Plate tool box. Old school again...

Basically the truck looks stock, with the Chrome package, which is just stodgy enough, with a few old school mods.

To young it up, being as it is a 2wd, I would...

#1. Ditch the nerf bars.
#2. Ground effects kit.
#3. Wing. The bigger the better.
#4. Carbon fiber hoods or fiberglass replicas made to look like carbon fiber
#5. Non-functional hood scoop
#6. Lambo doors.
#7. Chomed 24s.
#8. Excessively lowered suspension
#9. Bumper canards fitted to the front bumper
#10. Bright paint or interior, frequently in contrasting colors
#11. Decals and stickers for lots of different aftermarket parts.
#12 FX-2 Stickers.
#13 Straight pipes with a fart can.
#14. Neon and LED lighting in addition to the regular head/tail lamps and brake/turn signals, such as lighted windshield washer nozzles and tire valve caps, underbody neon lighting.
#15. Clear lenses front and rear.
#16. HID headlamps with high kelvin color temperature, causing excessive glare.



There you go! Now THAT looks like a college guys ride!

F it. I'm just going to leave it the way it is. Yes, I like it. I'll add some tires to it later down the line in about two months but I guess I'll sure get the Toyo MT's just to really beef it up. And for everyone saying I should level it, IT'S ALREADY LEVELED!!!!!!!!!
