Don't laugh too hard!! There's a fellow just north of here that actually does that, but is wood fired. He's modified old German technology and it runs. I think it's an old Ford half ton.

Ya just can't win.

Go with 4's and it looks like a Mustang.
Go with 5's and it will look like a ricer with the phart-cans stood on end.

May as well go stealth and keep it any size you like.

Hey Streetsmoker has your edge ever locked up on you. My truck wouldnt shut off and the display was on still with the key out. I had to pull the turbo timer wire to shut it off and then called edge to get the skinny on what was wrong. He never told me just beat around the bush at what might have happened. Somethin about hitting warp speed or something. He got me fixed with telling me to pull a couple of wires and wait and put it back together. Real nice help. Told me if it happens again they will give a new one. I tried to get the hot code for free but it was a no go.

Alright, more Stack drama. I have made it a point to keep all the bolt on accesories on my ride black cause it looks good on the silver paint. Like the tube steps and hopefully one day the ranch hand bumpers and the safari rack and the snorkle and wheels. So, should I do the stacks in flat black also? I have seen them and they look good to me. Kinda like stove pipe with the smoke to!! Whats yalls take on this dilema now. I think the chrome would look good, but I know the black would look good to and it would match all the other plans I have.

Never had a prob like that. It did reset itself to default one time though. Remember, mine dont have that there fancy turbo timer. Hey Dmax, I just payed for and have my bottle on its way to your house.

Here's a pic if you're wodering. Like I said, just a generic aluminum bottle. Should polish up nice though!!!!!!

Dmax I think the black would be sweet especially with the other black stuff. And, Streetsmoker if you keep going we are going to have to strap your head down like they stap blowers so they dont go sky high. (Hopefully we never have to worry about that though).

I think the flat black would have a "dirty" kind of look to it. I like "dirty" kinds of looks!




Streetsweepers truck is gonna look like one of those for real diesel pulling tractors that has the cables with turnbuckles going from the head to the bottom of the block to keep the block from splitting in half. They dont always work either!!!

Man I got a deal today. I have been searching for tires for a while now and just happened to stop by the used tire place today. The guy had just gotten a set of brand new BFG take off's with like a hundred miles or so on them. I ended up getting them mounted balanced old tire fee and all for 225. They are not E's but I dont haul the heavy stuff anyway.

Dmax, I say definatly go with the black. I love black accessories. I've seen a few pic's of black stacks and they look really good. They don't stand out and say look at me I need attention, like huge chrome ones. And they would really look good with all the other black you have and that silver paint. Also if you go with black I think the 5's would look better.

Oh and that ranchand came in handy when I changed the oil the other day, what's takin you so long.

If you put on black stacks and the ranchands and your truck comes up missing. Don't ask me, I'll know nothing.
