The TOM Comittee picks the truck from the pics in your gallery. So you can upload pics, and hope they like yours. I need to put pics of the new truck... Not like I'm getting nominated...

This nice looking plaque with the month and year your truck was chosen as a winner.

Is that pic of Squirrel's ride an actual "action" shot, or "post-action" during the stuck that resulted when he sank to his front bumper?

Ah what to do what to do?????

I just had to go with the best action shot and that to me was Intake's. Gregs deff.got a good pic also and either one I coud see getting space in a magazine somewhere. I really have a soft spot for 1st gens but the photo presented left a little to be desired. Sorry Squirl.

Well being partial to 1st gen's has nothing to do with my vote, though it is the 1st gen.

Look at all the muddy water in the picture, there isn't a dry spot visible. At the point gravity (How much weight over the front axle ) and momentum are not on your side.

I had to go with the second gen, I still think they are the best looking. Good luck guys, they are all sweet looking trucks!

There looks to be some churning action by the RF wheel, as well as a little "bow wave", so I'd say he's still making forward progress.

Intake Racing's pic is the coolest, but I had to go with the 1st gen.

Squirrel got my vote. That is just a mean ol' gnarly lookin' truck. I love those first gens. I hope to get one some day. The first gens are what made a diesel lover back when I was a kid. That truck o' his brings back memories. Very righteous rig.
