    I know this one is tricky, but it was necessary to do a threeway since there was an odd number... So go ahead and vote.

    Holy shit I have never seen hell rides! That thing looks BEAST.

    However Jerry gets my vote as it was his truck that inspired me to build mine. Plus he's a great guy and an awesome fabricator and I have two BAMF pieces of armor.

    :cheers: Jerry

    Seriously tough choice. I think Hellride's truck looks fantastic and capable, but there's something to be said for a built truck that gets used. I haven't seen anything but poser pics from Hellride so JLee gets my vote.

    All three trucks are pretty sick.
