    Haha. Thanks!

    I wish I was more popular. The last few cars I built I kind of kept them hidden so they were just legends. Which to me was kind of waste.

    I’ve tried sending pics to all pro and dirt king saying here use these for free. But no one ever reposts them.

    @90yota is the famous one. I see his truck posted by someone at least once a week. :thumbsup:

    Its funny man I was just having this discussion with 90yota about the publicity of his ride. When Mike was living on the east, he was the main inspiration for me to get the SCS wheels along with how much of a pioneer he is with the third gen group. I was shocked to find on SCS's website that they didn't even have him on there when he has been rocking their wheels for a good minute now. I feel like all three of you guys rigs are just too hardcore for the common company to handle or something. Besides that one guy who lives in Texas with a fully sponsored blue and black third gen, I feel the rest of you guys get no love. Then again, Im sure being sponsored makes things different.

    In all seriousness I don't understand it either. You guys have completely custom LT setups with 3 times the amount of money in shocks alone. Very solid built 3rd gens.

    I don't know how it would be possible, but if all three of your rigs got together for a photo shoot I don't know how they could deny that awesomeness!

    Getting sponsorships is a really hard thing… And then they have certain requirements that you have to go to certain things a number of times a year so if your schedule doesn’t allow it sucks

    I assume your ride had sponsors at one time right? Def a beast of a build!

    None at all. Unless you count the builder as a friend and giving a small discount on the hourly rate and cost on parts.

    Edit: ramen noodles count? Lol

    Damn man, props to you for how you built that thing out of pocket. I assume the main advantage of getting sponsored is during the build phase as once the parts are acquired and the initial requirement is fulfilled then people don't continue sponsorships do they?

    Side note. Best mod to fix the constantly shifting transmission? Put the stock exhaust back on. :anonymous:
