Default Missouri GMC

What's up guys? My name is Jared I live in a small town called Norborne near the Kansas City area. I lay flooring for a living. I work to support my vehicle habit. I own a ’68 Camaro, ’57 VW bug, my project “NoBack”, ’74 Karmann Ghia, and the body of a ’56 Chevy panel truck. Love muscle cars, my Camaro was my first car I bought in ’90. That’s why I added the stripes to my truck to give it the look of a Muscle Truck. I have to drive my truck about a mile down gravel to get to the blacktop, so it's always dirty. Right now I get about 20 mpg as long as I’m easy on it. I have been showing it and have done pretty decent, hope to do better next year with the recent mods that I’ve done.

My truck is a 2001 GMC Sierra with the 5.3 and factory yellow paint.
Mods include:
DJM 4/6 drop
Denali 17” wheels with Toyo 255/60R17
Escalade cluster from Chris @ Sotelectronics
Mac cold air intake
Aluminum flat bedcover
Custom silver vinyl stripes
Polk MOMO C650’s in doors
Polk MOMO 104 sub
Kicker 550.2 mono
My own custom box painted to match truck
Corvette fuel rail covers soon to be painted to match truck

click the link below to see some pics of my mods.

One of these weekends we'll have to check each others trucks out in person. I'm pretty interested in what all you've done to yours. I also checked out your site and I'm some what into farming also. Family has around 350 acres.

I grew up on a farm and loved every bit of it. I help a local guy pretty often when harvest time rolls around. My grandparents farm down south of Wichita. I usually post quite a bit on here so give me a shout.
