So I didn't get as much done as I was hoping. No custom sub box and no powder coating the harness bar. Detail guy is coming in the morning then the truck gets dropped off to be preped for the show. Ready to blow some peoples in minds in Idaho.

Sorry man. Been away. POGS standa for personel other than grunt. Its a term we use.
Anyway. The truck is really coming together. I like that rhino liner under the wires. Thats a smart plan. Curious. Why are you quitting your job?

27 months in Afghanistan can wear on you. I was only 23 when I started working over hear and I will be 26 soon. I need a girl friend lol. It will suck to not make all this money because chances are im going back to like a $45k a year job. But all the money in the world does not do much if you cant use it. I paid off all my bills bought my toys helped my family out. So I am in a great place to just go home and have fun. Also things are winding down very fast out hear and I just dont want to deal with all of that.

Thank you very much for all the nice comments guys.

Truck is looking great pat. Hopefully that interior will be a little quieter with the new floor. Are they eventually going to finish everything you wanted done? I would think the harness bars would start rusting soon... Also when your finally able to get in your truck, you have to tell me how comfy the seats are! Lol and how much room the backseat has. I want to do this to my truck soooo bad.

Im debating if I should rhino line or powder coat the harness bar. Also what do you guys think, should I do black or blue for the harness bars? But the things that are left probably wont get done until I get home.

I did get some seat time on my last R&R. That back seat has like no room. I am only 5' 6" and its a tight fit, but its better then no back seat at all (for now). The front seat is comfortable. I would think going on a 10 hour road trip will probably kill me but I will let you know when I drive from San Diego to Boise on October 4th. For now she is my daily driver but if I get another car/truck and cage the whole truck I will probably just keep the front two seats. Who knows if that will ever happen though.
