I think the truck will take a roll outside and let it run for a bit tomorrow...

sourkraut · 07-03-2012, 09:52 PM

That should get you in the mood! I am redoing our bath, when done i plan on bustin ass on mine to get it done! Till something else will need done....

msgross · 07-04-2012, 09:47 AM

It will also make the neighbors happy... straight exhaust is great!

**rgreathouse** · 08-24-2012, 10:35 PM

Any updates? This is an awesome build! Which receiver hitch did you use? and does it interfere with the boyd tank?

msgross · 08-25-2012, 05:19 PM

I found the tank on the board, just measure the frame rails... It doesn't interfere at all and come just under the license plate on the sport bumper, some other come out behind the plate which would be great as well...

This has been on pause for awhile, i'm leaving for Afghanistan in 2 months so my focus has been elsewhere...

That would be nice but this is a "new" Army... they get mad if we don't wear our eye protection and reflective belts... gone are the days of having fun...

Just learned that Command Sergeant Major's dont like it when you reply to them with "what's the reference for that CSM?"... and they don't have a written policy... this one happened when I was taking a break between flights and had my boonie cap on (gov issued boonie cap). New CSM says "be careful with that cap sir, only authorized on the flight line when your are working in the sun"... ummm, I was on the flight line and it was sunny... morons! I'm glad I outrank them but feel sorry for the lower enlisted sometimes, oh well, I use to be one 20 years ago...

68 TT · 06-05-2013, 03:49 AM

Any progress on the truck or are you still elsewhere?

msgross · 06-05-2013, 05:00 AM

Still hanging out in Ass-crackistan, should be home before Halloween. I'm debt free this month so i'll start saving for new things now.. new garage, body shop, rust free doors, etc...

glimmertwin01 · 12-03-2013, 10:20 AM
