What can I say, I try and be careful and of course wash and wax regularly.  I forgot I had these pics

Very nice looking truck . I like to hear that you use it as a truck, around here they pimp them up but lots of them never get dirty.

Thats why I only wanted 18" rims over the 16" I had.  I still needed it to haul things, and filling the wheel wells up with huge rims and skinny tires made no sense to me.  Unlick some people I know that have a rubber mat in the back to protect the box liner they own so it doesnt get scratched.  Isnt that what its for.  To each their own, but this sees its fair share of off road, as well as its fair share of acreage work too

This was right after a wash.  You should of seen it before.  While I dont go mudding, I do go offroad when I need to.

Just took a second look at your new wheels. They're pretty sick (as in good). Where did you get them? A friend is looking to upgrade the wheels for his Tacoma.

Ultra Wheel has some nice ones.  I got them at the Local fountain tire.  Is shopped for a few months to get the ones I wanted.

Spidey, nice lookin' truck --- good choice with the wheels.

Like Snowman said, the next time you've had her off road, you should snap a few pics.

I also have the rubber mat in my truck but it helps keep the back of the box cleaner as the dirt is much easier to sweep out with it down I find. I used it to carry 3 full loads on the weekend for earth week which was all trash we collected along the river.  Nice wheels and a good looking truck Spidey. Probably handles a little lighter in the front end now as well with the lighter wheels. All of your options look good on this vehicle.  :)

I was going to say that the red lettering didn't look good, but then I saw the Aerosmith logo on the back and decided to forgive you, eheheheh.

Ya, I wanted to do the angle thing to it so it looks 3d but isnt.  Kind of an optical illusin when you walk towards it, as it looks like its coming out of the tailgate

Spidey if it looks good to you then thats all that matters period. Personally I like what you have done with it as it does look pretty good for what it is and is in very nice shape as well. Enjoy and don't let anybody spoil it for you as it does look good.  :)

Thanks.  I still have a few minor things I want to do, but Ive done the majority of mods I wanted.  As I save up Ill get some more.  I wouldbt mind getting a hood bug/stone guard and Im also thinging of  getting the back springs upgraded so its more level when hauling loads
