agreed..she is a nice looking broad but hey it seems to be missing some....spice! thats it.
This is more like it. After a short trip to small mud hole salon she is living large and taking charge with a whole new look! [curtains open]

I'm sorry if i seem a little dazed but this is the first mud i have laid eyes on in about 7-8 weeks and it was just what the doctor ordered.

What a crappy paint job! They obviously didn't prime it, nor did they cover the full truck, because the original color is showing through. They didn't tape a damn thing off, so there's overspray all over, and they painted the bedliner?!? I'd go scream at them and get my money back.

just got done with the heavy clean up, yeah it wasn't the exterior that was the problem, it was cleaning out the engine compartment. man mud seems to get everywhere when you hitting it at 30mph
