nah...

I just enjoy working on it, i dont like bragging about it and when people usually talk about it I usually wish i didnt own it.

I am one of those "its never good enough" or " im never satisfied with it" types.

if you talk to like firefighterjosh, or some people i know close they know what i think of the truck.

seriously though, your truck is so much nicer than a majority of the rigs featured in those magazines... I know what you mean though. hell, I have a brand new Ranger that i originally wasnt gonna modify at all, but now after several thousand dollars of new toys, i still have an endless list of things I want to do. Its like a never ending process

Well whats the hold up just go remove a few bolts put most of them back in then with the extras just discard them, there not needed. As for the tuning its just a bunch of numbers cant be to hard to figure out.

Alright I think im going crazy ive been sittin on my computer now for 5 hours, doing homework for 4 different computer science classes

Your truck is amazing though Im definitely going to try and make out there if you guys have a spring meet at the dunes...
