Hope you park it FAR away from walmarts parking lot lol
I plan on parking in the middle of 4 parking spots near the back row of places if i even drive my truck to say wallyworld... if i have to go i might take the ole lady's car..... or ride with a friend.....oh and trust me if i catch a car next to mine and there is a dent that resembles something that could remotely come from their car.... it'll be on......

Emblems will be going back on but it'll be 3rd Gen badging..... i'm still torn on what to do on the tailgate.... prolly Dodge on the drivers side and heavy duty on the passenger side then ram 3500 on the doors and the cummins C on the front fenders.... and maybe put the SLT back on the pillars...

ya the shop door is 8 feet wide.... even with the dual tires it was about 6 inches too wide.... so it went in with singles on the rear and no fenders...
