Pics for Mudder
I don't think I ever gave you these, but they are from when you came up to the house. I know everyone else likes to look at your truck too, so I will post them here for you to grab.

Awesome looking truck. Give some of us "new bubbies" some info about the truck. I'm working my way, which is far from that, to have something that looks like that....Probably one of the best if not the best that I have seen like that....

D@MN! that is sweet. So how often does it earn its name the "mudder"? I don't think I ever would if it was mine.

Thanks so much for all the compliments. The pics turned out really good Stepside. I hgad forgotten you had taken those. There was a pic somewhere of Wages driving it but someone lost it. Ok for the mud pics. I say this. The truck was abused for many years and has really been retired. I will mud it for the right photographers. I was trying to get a feel for the bottom of that stream in the last pic. To my left it was really deep. I don't like to get that wet when I'm not swimming. I made several passes but a lot slower........ You can click on the link in my sig for my 4x4 club and its a featured truck there with more info. or you can go here and its a truck of the month at Customtruck showcase.... http://www.customtruckshowcase.com/f...&threadid=4568 Thanks again....
