Pope953's 1993 Pickup Build/Pictures

With 28 posts and a September 2012 join date I'm gonna say no......

 

x2.


and you going to paint the front bumper black or what?

I need to get some paint or bed liner and redo my rear bumper. the plasti dip is coming off after a year. stupid pressure washer.... also i think i should have used more than just 1 can...

 

He might be a lurker

I don't know. I want to, but at the same time all I seem to have on my mind right now is fishing, Brie, school, and a new truck (be forever but I want one).

 

do it. you know you will love it in the end. and year i can see having the mind on fishing and brie. also could look at just getting a plate bumper made? I think that would look sick, and mount your lights on it.

also what “new” truck you want?

 

Already been planned, but monies don't allow for one to be built at the time. Brie and I are working toward getting on the right path to get good jobs so we can take the next step. It's hard putting more money in this truck when I want a new one, although I would love to keep both.

And new truck will be a DCSB MGM TRD Sport.

 

oh nice. yeah i bet it’s price. does anyone even make plate bumpers for ’93s?

and good for you guys!

and very nice. i love the MGM so much. if i was to lose the truck to anything(wreck or it got stolen or something) i would probably get the DCSB MGM TRD Off Road. or if i may take a look at a full size(tundra) MPG is about the same even with the big 5.7L. brother dogs his and gets on it all the time, and does like 80 and he gets like 14 to 16mpg. I could probably get 17 maybe 18 out of it, because i don’t drive quite as fast, and i would not get on it from red lights as much.

I would really like a 1st gen 4 runner for just driving around town on really nice days and for off roading. and if i was not going some where close(windrock or royal blue to mess around or camp,(both are less hen 45min a way) i would trailer it some where.

 

Pretty sure arb makes one. I would get one custom built around here, maybe the guy that fabbed my rear bumper.

 

Sounds good. We'll have to meet up sometime. Do any wheeling?

 

Not a whole lot. Me and my buddy went up to max patch a few months ago after midnight and that ended in a disaster. We also went up to lake douglas last fall when it was drained and ran around in the mud. But other than that not much. What about you?

 

SKEWP!

 

Hardly ever. I like to do it, but I don't go alone, so only when there is a relatively close meet. Been to Hurricane Creek a couple times. Fun little trail. Me and Chris (VirginiaBound) are getting a meet possibly ready for Hurricane Creek in July. Think you'd be interested?

Damn right!!

 

Definitely, my friend Ryan (Motostar00) would be down to go and maybe some more. I heard recently that bulldozers went through hurricane and are trying to make it more of a road, but I'm not 100% positive on that.

 

It's been a couple months ago since I went. It's not a rough trail at all. Hope they aren't doing that though!

 

I know, I've never actually been through the hurricane side of the trail. Someone I know went up there recently and that's what he said they were doing but I don't know if that's the truth.

 

I may have to go check it out then. I live fairly close.

 

That wouldn't be a bad idea, but I wouldn't waste your time or go out of your way to check.

 

Hurricane Creek is right by the state line right? or it that some other place by the TN/NC line?

 

yeah. right off the I40 around mile marker 7 or 8

 

ok thought so. if you guys meet, i may come up. Wes if you guys do PM or text me and make sure i know. I’m only about 1.5h to 2h a way, so I’d be down for a day meet and a little off roading.
