Re: Newbie requset

Everybody has their own tastes. Personally, I think the fancier paint jobs like two-tones and such belong on stock trucks. Once you start lifting them, I like basic, solid colors.

A 6-inch lift and 35s is a great-looking truck, and was actually my plan before I got this one. And Gunmetal grey is an excellent color, I don't think you can go wrong with any of the basic colors: black, blue, white, grey.

My truck is a (slow) work in progress. I know it looks nice in the photo, but it's actually in poor shape, barely driveable. The paint is awful, the only thing good about the interior is the seat isn't in bad shape, but the REST of it is terrible, no gauges other than temp and speedometer, and no heater. Very little rust, though, that's one of the benefits of our dry climate here in the high desert.
