    You're telling me man...I think I'm going to call Demello today because they said they were going to call me recently with an update but no such luck. I'm not even sure it's made it to the freight company yet.

    EDIT - Called and they said the freight company is coming to pick it up today. Do you remember how long it took for you from the time of pickup to delivery for the shipping?

    And it's this little guy.

    I'm eating that popcorn right along with you...I think I'll call Demello again tomorrow because they said they were going to call me with the shipping company information after they picked it up on like Thursday, but I haven't gotten anything. Hopefully it won't take more than a business week once the freight company has it.

    Did you happen to see if the 17th would work for you?

    Huge thanks to Blitzpro for the Hawk 21S LED Lightbar from their Social Network Madness Sweepstakes!

    I should have many big updates within the next month, such as my Demello Front Plate Bumper, Avid Offroad Weld-On Sliders, Blitzpro 21S LED Lightbar, Homertaco Satoshi, TRD 4.7'' Antenna and LineXing my toolbox!

    Thanks!

    I got it from here, but I'm not sure if I would recommend it. If you can see in my picture of it, the little bottom ring won't line up with the rest of the antenna, and I've heard the black (everything except the carbon fiber) will discolor over time and turn a copper color. I get a little bit of static at my house but I don't use the radio and I have my stock antenna under my back seat in case of an emergency. It's only for looks for me.

    When you give me $280 something...I've said a few good things about your truck. I think that's worth that price...

    You forget...I'm married. Therefore I have no money.
    I think it's a law or something

    No money for you! :evil:

    I'm thinking about getting the Ap IFS skid because it's the cheapest ($219), the lightest (54 lbs), but I've still heard really good things about the quality. The purchase will probably be relatively far off though.

    I don't remember how much it weighs, but it's 1/4 in plate so you will never have to worry about it bending under pressure.

    Yeah, it's still like $45 more than the AP, which is 3/16'', so I don't know if it's worth it just for another 1/16'' of protection, especially since I'm a mall crawler. :anonymous:

    I have 5100's at 0'' and OME 885x coils in the front. I didn't really notice any sagging in the front when I put the Demello on, but then again, I forgot to take before/after measurements, so it might've sagged maybe 1/4''-1/2'' and I didn't even notice.

    Yes, I am 18, turning 19 in July. If you're wondering why I have the money for this stuff, I will say that I have some amazing parents that bought my truck for me (which I will forever be grateful for) and I try to work to pay for all the mods I do. A lot of my time is spent at college or volunteering at the FD, but I sometimes work with my uncle, who is a general contractor to help pay for the stuff that I want.

    I hope to drive this thing till the wheels fall off, roll past me, and I hit my head on the steering wheel.
