Thanks guys! It's great be part of this poll. Even my load is not the biggest, but it's different.

You're so right for the difficulty for ordering the parts. Man, my bumper took over 5 months, three wrong shipments and numerous calls and when it came here it was full of scratches and it was grey!

I ordered F1 diesel valve springs, got Hamilton springs. I paid the full price of 899$ for quadzilla adrenaline with pulse, give them the correct code for the product and what do I get for waiting my parts for 3 months?
Only adrenaline with no pulse! Now they say that I have to wait at least 2 months for the pulse+ shipping in here! This product has a 3 month warranty from the day you buy it, I bought it on August and it's not even on my truck yet!
My ATS compund setup arrived in a carboard box. The box was so badly damaged that I could see my turbos and the paint of the cold pipes were damaged and the turbos were all ready covered by slight rust... At least my transmission arrived here for after 5 months after it was shipped from Canada to USA. The shipping&taxes alone were over 3500usd...

I got little carried away from the poll, I could carry on this for hours...

Anyway, thank you guys for voting me!

Is this poll still going? RattlinRam where are you?

I thought the TOM ended around midnight on the last day of the month/1st day of the next month.

Usually the polls only involve 3 trucks so they tend to be a little lopsided and it wouldn't matter when (exactly) that they ended. But in this case, with 24 entries, it is kinda close and a couple of votes could make a difference.

As of this writing, it is now the 2nd day of the next month...........and there are 104 total votes and I have slim 2 vote lead over AggieJustin. (16 me, 14 Justin)

I just want to say thanks to everybody that voted for me for TOM. And to AggieJustin for making it such a close race! Justin and I are both active members of North Texas DTR #8 and he would certainly be very deserving of a win. And, for those of you that don't know him personally, he is as good as they come. But, I do feel very honored to have as many votes as I did among all of these awesome rigs! Thanks everybody! And best of luck to all the other entries next time around.

TexasCTD,
Sorry for the late response,,,,,, I've been so bounced around working doubles at work, that I forgot about the time.
Congrats on the close win and I'll get a PM to you for your info shortly.

I'm going to ask one of our other Adimins to take over the TOM duties due to me taking on another position at work that just doesn't leave me enough time to devote to running it on schedule.

It's been fun and I've enjoyed it.
