Can't hide money

It hides from me pretty well!

I have right around $5k in this, including buying the original truck...

I really dig the lines on this thing. Well done.

Thanks, I'm going to add another couple tubes and gussets around, put the hood back on etc.

Might even paint it, but then it'd be to fancy. And paint don't make it go up rocks better!

Paint may put you over your 5k cap. :dunno:

Its a pretty cool little budget rig. :dblthumb:

Ride went really well, no issues at all. Rear suspension will get addressed next.

Oh yeah, after the initial nervousness of making sure the motor wasn't going to blow up and parts weren't going to fall off the truck subsided, it was a great ride.

The only issue we had all weekend was Gabe's 4 runner buggy threw a fan belt, but that was just a minor inconvenience.

Well yeah, that's the difference in a $2000 set of tires and a $200 set...

And the perfect weather
And the steaks on the campfire :eat:

And Coors Beer!
And car hauler trail at night
And that you climbed carpenters rock house
And that I got to ride and drive 2 trucks that I built all weekend
And my cb fixed itself molaugh

The hammock was way better than sleeping straight lying down on the rock next to the fire. :****:
