Now that is one good looking truck! Interior pics?

[the_pack_rat]

I rode in a late model 6.0L power stroke truck similar to that last week.

The noise level was very impressive ... NOTHING like the older diesels were(they were loud).

The only time you really heard it, was when you stomped on it ... & boy did it haul ass when you put your foot into it(think it had a "tune" at a minimum).

Sweet truck, had I been on a car lot with money to burn, that sucker would be sitting in my driveway right now.

:drool:

[RCSignals]

it's sMarty yellow!


I'm sure the muffler monkeys love it too :) ;)

[RoyLPita]

We have one of those in stock here at work. We had one earlier but it sold fast. Congrats and enjoy.

Congrats on the new ride. I am hoping to join here in the next few weeks - finally. Just hope there are some good, low mileage, black '04's as soon as the funds are ready.

[StevenJ]

Roy, you comming to the meet friday at tower shops? Bring your new car! lol! Almost makes me wish I had black instead of silver. Actually, it does make me want a black one over my silver one. If black wasn't so hard to clean but that's another story. Will be looking foward to what you have to say about the car being that we are both new owners. :beer:

That doesn't look like the Black Harley Davidson truck you showed me at Team Ford. You must be suffering from Yellow Fever. I think that happens from a combination of late-hours at the Waffle House. The fever has very little distinguishable signs in the first couple of weeks. Then a sudden evaporation of cash becomes continuous. You become consumed with work related projects that overwhelm your free time. If you are suffering from any of these sign then contact your attorney immediately.

Martyo, now we understand the symbolism of yellow.

Sorry Martyo, after seeing you in the Waffle shop picture I got this vision.

Nope...you're right my friend. I showed you a different truck. This one has everything that the Harley has...but matches my logo better. After Superchips, S&B Cold air intake...and our 4" turbo-back exhaust...it will be a screaming yellow (able to beat most N/A Marauders and certainly that International thing in the 1/4)

BTW...I'll certainly have it done by the SSHS...so the keys will be yours for a spin!

You're still jealous Todd.
Don't feel bad about not being a Scot.
You can still wear a kilt, thick socks will hide your chicken legs :lol: :lol:

:coolman:

[RoyLPita]

Todd, please accept my apologies for your thread getting hijacked. I did not expect so much fanfare for this.

BTW, my dealer has 2 of those trucks available for sale.

Just so y'all know, I made a new thread for all to post on about my MM.

Todd, everything you do is first class, congratulations truck looks great!!!:D

[shakes_26]

sweeeeet!

I got to ride in el grande Heffe's truck while visiting Marrieta. They must have killed a herd of cattle to cover all that interior with leather! Hmmm leather....

Nice ride, btw getting lots of compliments on the custom exhaust :) She sounds so nice!

[Glenn]

What a beautiful truck! Good luck with the business and truck.. Hay doesn't your truck qualify for the SSHS5 in November??? You know 4 door sedan......??

Now at least I know why you have been too busy to return my calls. :(

[UAW 588]

Nice truck. I hope you enjoy it. Cause I enjoyed making your hood. It is stamped and assembled in my plant, before shipment to Kentucky Truck. And don't worry its entirely made of sheet metal and not aluminum. So its a heavy duty hood for a heavy duty truck. :banana:

[Donny Carlson]

Now at least I know why you have been too busy to return my calls. :(
The Meister of Mufflers is one busy man these days.

I had the pleasure of being present for the planning of some of these mods to the Grand Truckster. Todd and I went over to Team Collision to see about the grille and tail gate handle painting - both of which turned out great as you can see in the pics - and he told me about the splash plates, exhaust, window trim and fuel door. Note he relocated a badge on the door. Wait til you see the graphics package coming. It'll be impressive!!

[RCSignals]

What brand is the fuel door? Is it locking as well?

The Shop Truck...finally fully "dressed".....
