Sweet truck Tim. I hope you have as much fun driving it as you did building it. This gives everyone hope and maybe see a light at the end of a very long tunnel. Can't wait to hear the specs.

Congratulations!!! You'll start spending more time in the show area than the vendor area. Really nice. Great work.
