    Used to run around and go rock crawling with my Jeeps, but always go hassled by my friends for not having a Toyota. Several cars, and a big investment later, I have my first one. Put some times and rims on it, did a complete overhaul on the sound system which ended up being a fun little project. Already got the X-Runner hood... next step is to paint it and install it.

    Love it. [​IMG]

    Haha, that's a good looking bike, just like your truck I'm assuming?

    Mine is only a 2001 MXC-250

    Trying to sell it right now... too much stuff I wanna do with my truck. But funny thing is, my niece lives in Hollister. HAHA. So that could be arranged[​IMG]

    Truck looks OK. It will look better when I get the new bumper on. But as you know, it's pouring here--snowing there :D

    That sucks. And you'll probably need a different tire for HH although that might work pretty well this weekend...LOL. We've had a bit more than a 1/2 inch in the last 10 or so hours. I'm sure HH will be muddy and closed (at least Renz and the Adobe side) :(

    Everythings gotta start somewhere man. My truck was about as bland as they get for a while there. Yeah, haha. I've had the paddle tire on there since I was in the dunes up in Oregon. It was a blast.

    Thought I blew my top end though, put it on Craigslist for cheap, and I came across the problem as I was cleaning up the bike. Replaced a $2 key under the stator cover. Bike starts right up.

    The knobby I have for it is huge. lol soooo much meat.
