I just wanted to thank those of you who thought enough to nominate me for totm... i have seen the past winners and wow, it is an impressive list.

I got my truck just over a year ago... it was completely stock the day i bought it and before it left the dealership i had them put a billet grill on it and before it got home for the first time i went and had exhaust and tinted the windows... here is the original truck...



After that i went down to the local truck / car accessory shop which was a big mistake for two reasons... #1 I instantly got addicted to modding my truck...

I have had the truck now for just over a year and here is the complete list of mods and pictures...


At first I thought rims, stereo, tint, muffler would be my extent… boy was I wrong… here is the list of mods I have done ---- PLEASE NOTE --- MANY OF THESE MODS WERE DONE 2-3 TIMES FROM WHAT I HAVE NOW… I have replaced things better and better… but the final product is below:
