haha i was gonna say, just give it to scott or dj.... noble of you to step back. I just started cleaning my truck last night. Guess. I'll have to get her dirty again soon.

On a side note, it definitely would be cool to see some more random challenges like this, and prizes are always fun too.

Cleaned mine 2 days ago...Still didn't get all the bugs off. I suck at cleaning. That why I have a truck.

Good luck to the soon to be winners. I guess seeing pics of clean rangers could be cool.

You guys don't win anything on the RF challenges so why would this be different? Just curious.

adam, the "we've ALWAYS done it this way" isn't a good excuse. you know where kodak is now? yeah, me neither.

other forums have prizes, or at least, random giveaways. Why should we be any different?

it's not like i'm gonna leave the site if you dont give me free stuff. I'm just sayin.

I'm not saying we should or shouldn't ever give anything away, I was just stating that we don't.

And also someone has to pay for the giveaways and that would most likely be Kris or myself at this point and time. Maybe down the road a little bit will could do something like giveaways but remember we just got new owners are are still getting everything squared away.

Back on topic though. Any other questions about giveaways PM Kris or myself and we will be happy to answer.
