    I remember the day I brought my little girl home. I call her "Quickie." I cried and cried.......

    I feel this thread needs a little direction to enable viewers to understand what my truck is about. Most prolly don't give two shits and will scroll right through, and that's OK.

    This truck is a tool. A tool that, hopefully, allows me to reach destinations of my choosing. I am "building" it to function in an off road environment more effectively than it did when new. It doesn't need the latest and greatest whiz-bang suspension to be able to do that. It doesn't need 18 LED's and every accessory under the sun to function as I would like it to. But it does need a few things.....
    I purchased the truck in April of 2016, drove it, and began discovering what those things are.

    Having said that, I'm gonna also post pictures in places that I have visited, because that is what is most important to me! :thumbsup:

    I have included an index as some people may not be interested in the "supplemental material" between build posts. :notsure:

    I like it. It has all the ingredients of a compelling drama.

    You bastard! You have the truck I would have gotten if I didn't have to settle on a different color because there wasn't a desert tan off road access cab within a three state radius when I was trying to buy. I'm jelly. What are you gonna do to it first?

    If you really want Quicksand, and you have a lot of money, we could probably work something out. ;)

    I bought it in 2016 and have done a few mods. I will scrape up a few pitchers and get this thing rolling.

    Ok I’m in for the title. When I read it, I feel, I feel like you are saying, “you all got tic tacs, I’ve got a baby’s arm holding an apple; and it can sing to you” and you can bet I want to hear that song.
