The main difference between a "Big Truck" and a "Large Car" is; a Big Truck does what it can, and a Large Car does what it wants.

Gjtbob thx for the props....

Heard a good joke the other day....

Sidney Crosby walks into a bar and asks for an " Ovechkin "
Bartender says, " what's that? "
Sidney replies, " it's a White Russian with no ice , no cup " :lol::lol:


Lighting effect looks great! Wiring can definitely be a pain but hey, unless somebody picks up your truck and flips it over, who's gonna see it? :). What I see is some sharp lighting.

Sweet build, the insanely stretched rigs have always captured my attention. I really like how you ran the trailer light connection in a hidden design.
