Arrow May Truck Of the Month Poll

April showers bring,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
lousy weather for trying to take pictures of your truck....... right?

NOT to worry,,,,,,,,, the three randomly chosen candidates look like they found some time in between raindrops
to snap a few of pics of some really clean rigs.

LET THE VOTING BEGIN!!!


,,,,,,,,,,, AND,,,,,,,,, like it says below,,,,,,,,
If you don't win this time,,,,,,,, you can nominate your truck again the next time the category comes back around.

**********************************************
Truck Of the Month Procedure for 2008

The DTR TOM Staff has come up with a new procedure for choosing the TOM candidates.


* Starting Dec. 1st, 2007, we will post a thread with the winner for this month’s poll in the General Diesel Discussion section of the forums.

* At the same time, we will post a “TOM Candidate” thread in the same forum. In this thread we will announce the category of trucks that will be accepted as possible candidates. (1st Gen 250, 350, 2nd Gen 2500, 3500, 3rd Gen 2500, 3500, MegaCab, etc.)

* If your truck falls into the chosen category for that month and you would like to have a chance to be in the poll, then you can nominate your truck by posting a picture from your gallery in that thread.
* NOTE: The picture MUST come from your Diesel Truck Resource Member Photo Gallery! (Anything else will be deleted.)

* You can also list some of the mods and accessories on your rig in the same post. Please post only once in that thread because the TOM committee will select three trucks from that thread to be in the poll. The process for selecting the three candidates from this thread will be completely at random. If your truck is not selected for the poll or it is but it doesn't win, you may nominate it again when your category comes back around.

* Previous Winners of the TOM will not be eligible to participate. (Previous Winner being defined as truck and/or DTR Member)

* The “TOM Candidate” thread will be open from the 1st of the month until the 14th of the month. That gives you two weeks to submit your truck.

* At this time it will be locked, the three poll candidates will be chosen at random and the poll will be posted on the 15th . The poll will be voted on until the end of the month and we start all over again on the 1st of the next month by posting the winner in one thread and posting the “TOM Candidate” thread for the next month's category.

          Special THANKS to Tim Barber at TRE Diesel Performance for sponsoring the TOM Award plaques!

          WOW, Now that was a tough decision. I felt it came down to "who took a better picture" more than "who has the better truck". Very tough this month. But I gotta admit, I've always been a big fan of the square bodied Chevy's and Dodge's. Makes my think my new toy (which I'm currently searching for) shouldn't be a Jeep, but rather a 1st Gen 4x4 ClubCab.......

          I am going with Tater, I have seen this truck in person and the attention to detail is mind blowing.

          All three are sweet trucks, I would be proud to call any one of them mine, but then again I have a soft spot for 1st Gens.

          OMG!!! All 3 of those trucks are immaculate!!! With all due respect, I'm not voting for any because they are all so nice and I like all of them equally. I wish my 1980 Powerwagon was 1/2 as nice as any one of those. Very nice trucks guys, hats off!!!!

          They are ALL EXTREMELY nice and it was a very hard choice but I had to go with oldcool90. I have a soft spot for the early 1st gens.
