This post just officially lit my ass on fire. I am like three beers in, but Canadian beer is like moonshine so whatever.

Its exactly why I joined RF and what I hope to get out of it.

I hope you don't mind my editing that, but it was just to funny to leave alone.

Ciaran 04-11-2009 05:14 PM

That song describes my truck and I to a 'T' excluding the 'Kissed my tears away' part.

LOL, I think that goes for all of us!!

Mykhael 04-11-2009 06:35 PM

Truck looks great

How much does that front bumper weigh?

I was thinking of doing a thread like this now you stole my thunder I don't wanna be a copy cat

ClemsonRanger03 04-11-2009 06:37 PM

Trigger, you and Sea Bass are my insiration. Your trucks are beautiful. Especially knowing its a 2wd gives me confidence I can do it.

Mykhael 04-11-2009 06:39 PM

Triggers truck is 2wd?

Trigger01 04-11-2009 06:49 PM

Yes, unfortunately. If it wasn't I would have gone with the 5.5" suspension lift instead of the 3".

The bumper weighs almost twice as much as the stock bumper.

Mykhael 04-11-2009 06:50 PM

Holy Crap I thought yours was 4wd

blueranger789 04-11-2009 06:53 PM

yeah i asked the same question about an hour ago

Trigger01 04-11-2009 06:56 PM

I always wished it was. I drive it like it is. Actually I think I've learned to drive it a little better/smarter because I am 2wd and most of the time I wheel alone.
