I never would've guessed that they would throw stuff down the side of the truck. (That was sarcasm in case you couldn't tell)

I don't take the truck Offroad or I wouldn't have Powdercoated everything underneath it blue.

It's for show. Would you put 30-40k of work into a 40k truck then go mudding in it? I know I'm surely not going to do that.

Avg fuel economy says 12.4 on the dash but I calculated it one time and it was really about 12 even, that's mixed city and hwy. If I'm on a long trip and cruising on the hwy I can get 15.

As small of a town as Baytown is, I have never seen that truck running around town. I probably would not have gone with that much offset to have the wheels/tires sticking out that far, but it doesnt look bad.
