My truck's info...

This is what my truck looked like when I bought it Jan. '08:





And here is what my truck looks like now (the only thing missing off of it here is the fender flares that can be seen in my signature picture)...

Trail riding (the angle is bad in this picture... its hard to tell, but the truck is really sitting on a steep incline and I'm below it):

my vote is in!

95_318SLT you've done a lot of nice work on your truck, I must admit.
You and varis should be head to head in this poll.
No offense to frenchy, but these trucks have been built and had a lot of sweat and tears put into them.

 

I agree! My vote is in. Good luck to all.

Is there anyway to cheat for someone. Darn I shouldn't of said that out loud. JK

 

It was a split for me between 98 and Varsis. Both are sick trucks and like Bond said, alot of blood sweat and tears. I'm all about performance machines.

 

Remove this bolt, and add this bolt, is cool, but when it boils down to solid axle swaps, swapping motors, that is a project, and these two projects were completed with success. I searched for varis on dakota-durango.com (where I "Used" to frequent), he has been a member for 3 years with 51 posts. I am finding this forum quite interesting, yet the layout is really holding this forum back.

 

Thank you 95_318 for your information and pictures. Perhaps if either of the others wish to gain more votes they should do the same.

When is this voting poll going to end?

 

When I first got it...

I know I'm missing some stuff...

 

FWiW, Varis' truck is amazing...
