Nice looking truck. I would like to know tire specifics. Size, brand, model?

Not really a fan of the white guages. What's up with the voltage meter?

Looks like it's showing a really high charge! The smoke coming from the hood is the battery about to explode...

Truck looks great! What kind of hood is that and where did you get it from? I really like it a lot, too bad shipping anything that size to Hawaii costs almost as much as the item itself.

My opinion....personally I dont like the hood or the gauges. The rims are a good choice, but im all about following the same scheme....need a black tool box and black step...imo.

The tires are Pro Comp Xtreme All Terrains, size 305/65R17 (Its the same as a 33x12.50)

The voltage meter......im just a dumbass and didnt put it back on right. It doesnt really bother me cuz with the programmer i can just look at it on there.

The hood, i bought it from andysautosport.com. Its made by extreme dimensions and its the platinum style. Its a non functioning hood so if you cut it out, make sure you reinforce it really good or it'll crack (its fiberglass). The hood itself only cost $425 but be prepared to fork out some money to get it prepped and painted. It took a lot of prep work to get it to fit right. The guy that did mine only charged me $550 instead of the $900 he normally would because im in the air force and his son just joined. So i pretty much lucked out there.

Bucko, theres no smoke coming from the hood.

And finally, it does have a scheme to it. Im keeping the outside silver and black with just a little bit of chrome. i cant stand it when people over-do the chrome. A little bit looks nice, but not a lot. All the interior lights are blue and soon the seats will be the factory gray on the outside with black in the center and blue stiching. Im still looking for ideas so if any of you have some ideas, please let me hear 'em.

Thanks for all your opinions. Keep 'em comin!
