Wow that is crazy! That is my truck, 100%. Wow, no one ever asked me so I had no idea. I should ask for a free product for use of my picture. LOL

Where did you say it is from? Princess auto?

No roll bar, bearing caps are silver on the box, different tires. Door badging looks different?

But everything else matches, even the step bar! That box is not from Princess Auto. It's a piece of equipment made by a small fabrication shop in a place we call...

the Twilight Zone.

it might have some differences but copy right laws do that... photoshop it edit it some so it looks a bit different then post... beats laws all the time.. but again they have to prove that wasn't your truck before u added rollbars ect.....

anyway yea.. it was at princess auto.. says made by ROCK so idk cause princess auto website says its made by power fist... :/



eitherway its nice to know your truck gets around... even when ur nnot driving it :O

Before I read this post I thought the same thing, it has to be the same truck, cause it has the same pinstripe wave on the front fender.

That is an early picture of my truck right after the SAS. I remember that day, it is my picture of my truck, I have the original. That was before the bed bar/roll bar, the Dakota emblem looks to be edited out due to copyright laws (they don't want to fight a big company) but they left the DODGE on the grill. That was before I bought the Warn locking hubs. The hub cap was stock for the axle.

It is 100% my truck. LOL

They probably pulled it off here, or a 3rd party site, I have seen my photos around other sites most are just like picture collections or links to other albums. The company is Rock Machinery the contact us page states an address out of China. So copyright laws probably don't exist. But I will send them an email and try to get a free product out of it, for full photo release. I will try to shoot for this winch bumper they have listed.

You should post the original to make this thread a complete documentation of this historical event!

It's kinda cool because you know they probably just searched for "off-road truck" or something like that, and picked the most badass photo they could find. And it was yours!

Good luck with the winch bumper, hope you get it. All the same it is pretty cool to have a pic of your truck showing up all over the place.
