    This is true!

    Also, even the best powdercoat will scrape off if you really use the skids. I think it's still worth doing. It just needs to be checked and maintained periodically.

    A decent powdercoat should last you a long time, then!

    It's my friend's truck. I helped with the project. LS2, AI heads, cam, long tube headers, Tremec T56 magnum, suspension work, the list goes on. Not exactly sure, but 550+ HP on E85. It's ridiculous! It actually drives really nice!

    A couple of weeks ago when I went to Cabelas I came home empty handed. I ended up ordering online new cold weather camo, parka and bibs. Well, the new Cabelas ad came and the cloths I got went on sale. I called customer service. I was 1 day past their price adjustment policy. But, the nice lady gave it to me anyway

    Another box from China arrived. Ok it was from Georgia. I’m almost positive he got it from China. Oh well here comes another gaudy add on.
