Tell the world a little bit about your vehicle
Bought in 2001 fresh off the lot in Pearl Forest Green. I bought it off my dad when I was 16 and the modding began. I hydroplaned into a tree one day on the way to college, repainted the truck Pearl Sapphire Black Metallic. Then a BMW hit me on the highway twice and ran, so it got repainted to Matte Black and murdered out. This truck helped me to keep my 3 businesses started, and has helped me to keep me making money. I do all the work myself, own 1 business now, which is an automotive business. Custom work, rebuilds, and maintenance. Love this truck.
