Default Its SPRING! 1st Drive out of storage...

Went and sprung the gorilla today! Man it felt good to let it rip along those quiet CT backroads again! Installed my DDM HIDs this aft and cant believe the huge improvement...

Not a bad looking truck but why do you put it away for the winter?

Its a hot rod...500+ torque in snow isnt too useful. Hood vents will fill with snow, havta change tires, salt, grime...its not reliable enuf to be a daily driver...
