That doesn't look safe!

Dale Sr. would roll in his grave if he saw the #3 on that.

Sad part of all this is they put a lot of work into it too.

Some people just don't get it do they?

If I had that much space, I'd have like 66" Tires or something! Those tires on it, make it look just plain STUPID!

2 things;

I want to see the drop hitch for that receiver.

That interior trim paint looks like something Dave might like.

Does anyone else find it odd that there is a body lift on that too? Like the 3 foot tall jungle gym was not enough, it needed an additional 3" of tire clearance?

Thats probably how all this got started. He put the body lift on and said"Needs more lift". I don't have any money but I have a pile of scrap iron, and a welder....
