Thanks Bud. Ya never know, sometimes wishes come true. It was only a couple years ago I had a wish.
Glad you like the vids. My video making skills need some work but I enjoy doing it.

The bumper needs to be changed, but it's really not that bad, other than it's plastic. What will you go with? Big square replacement, or a larger tapered front bumper?

Thanks Nathan. I never really liked the bow tie visor when I was building mine and Sues truck but all of a sudden I thought it would suit this dump truck perfectly. Which reminds me I have to post a pic on Rods customer pics thread:cop:
I think I will use the same front bumper as the other trucks. PMD tapered with 5 LEDs. Nothing too big so I can drive off road.
Company logo is going on the doors for this one.

Ya, it's a great little system for under 40 bucks and shipping wasn't bad. Only draw back is no way to power marker lights. Each channel can only handle 4 lights.

Sorry, forgot to mention no LEDs come with it. I get all my LEDs from this place.

Great site, fast service, never had a bad bulb and decent price for prewired with resistor LEDs .

Re: S&M Trucking and construction!

ok, its official......I am a RC addict and loving every minute!
S&M trucking is not only able to haul equipment, we now HAVE equipment!
I spent my RC budget for an entire year in one click of a button and the prize has arrived!:bounce::bounce:

funny story........

my aunt and uncle whom I haven't seen in over 5 years are passing through for a visit. The same day they arrived, so did the postal notice I have a parcel for pick up!
After coming up with an excuse to leave them for a bit I went and picked up the hoe. Got home, put the box in the basement and went back to entertaining my relatives:eek::eek::eek:

any idea what its like to be in that situation???? :bounce::bounce::bounce:
got on Wednesday, opened on Friday!:eek:

Re: S&M Trucking open for bizz nizz !!!

Worst case scenario, I would have opened that package up, just as soon as everyone was in bed. :D Not two days later!

Re: S&M Trucking open for bizz nizz !!!

Nice addition Mario, I would have Introduced them to the hobby by opening it right then:lol::lol:

Re: S&M Trucking open for bizz nizz !!!

Mario, better keep an eye on that truck, it's using more than one alias.

I forgot to mention the battery wasn't here yet on Wednesday, it arrived Friday. I didn't want to torture myself looking at this thing and cant run it so figured best to look at a box for a couple days.
A lesson in patience I guess Nathan.:)
