Default New to this site dut not DCPJ vehicles

A short intro. Name is Ted and I work in an automotive brake research research lab for a Tier 1 supplier. Have almost 30 years in the Testing and R&D field. Have had a long list of Chrysler products as the EP leases used to be stellar. The wife has a 13 GCV as a DD currently.

Here is a picture of my current 3/4 ton truck.

Currently assembling a later front and rear suspension and then it will be 1 ton rated. And yes it is an actual factory built vehicle and not hacked.
