Man I worked with a guy that had a truck JUST like this. Same wheels and all. I remember lusting after that truck, but ended up buying his bike instead. Should have bought the truck, I ended up getting ran over on the bike.

Is this a special edition truck or what's up with the paint scheme? I see one abandoned with that same paint scheme but white and blue. Are they all 454's?

yeah the truck has drop spindles and 3" springs up front and the rear just has a 6" flip kit. The wheels are 20x9" and 20x10" American racing Torque thrust II's with the grey centers. Yeah... torque thrusts... ever seen those wheels before. Haha

Seriously, this is how I want my truck to look. I would love to have the factory grill back. The P/O changed it for a chrome on and I've always hated them. Love the trim too! And being a UT fan, that color is perfect.........
