Once featured in Street Trucks Magazine (I may have located a copy, if I can get my hands on it I'll include it with the purchase) Originally I purchased this truck for my son, without going into the details that fell through. Now he's getting married and I need to sell it to help pay for some wedding obligations and free up some money for MY project car. I have been working on bringing this truck up to par for months, It was never in bad shape just somewhat taken apart for further customization and the paint needed freshening up. I think it has turned out beautiful. The truck sits all the way on the ground when dropped, around 12" off the ground when lifted, very drivable. Features a 3 1/2 inch body drop, hand built back half frame, C'ed for rear end clearance with a 4 link set up. Shaved door handles, gas door and tailgate. Raised bed with custom painted "wood grain look" in the bed. Kind of a dark charcoal (almost black) custom paint on top, darkish red on the bottom, marbled tribal flames. Custom grill, chrome high rise intake and alternator, matching paint on engine parts. Rolling on Bentchi 22" wheels. Leather and suede custom interior, Kenwood stereo, Alpine amp, PG speakers. Also I added new Viair compressors, new rear bags, braided lines (plastic to the front) I don't know a ton about air ride so I may not be able to answer all questions, but I did learn a bunch on this and can't wait to do another. Also "if" ever the battery goes dead, (so you're not locked out) I added exterior battery posts, hidden in front bumper, red side has been touched with black to hide it since the pictures were taken. There are some security features I'll share with buyer (so they stay secret) after sale is complete. The truck has 104k miles on it, but obviously has been taken well care of and acts like it will run forever. The more I drive it the more I enjoy it, I've taken it to two local shows since I've got in running and have struggled weather to keep it or not, so with a deep breath....here it goes.

KBB 2013 Brand Image Awards has some obvious and oddball winners
Sat, 30 Mar 2013The sixth edition of the Kelley Blue Book Brand Image Awards have crowned a wide range of winners - in a couple of cases the recipient of the laurels might say more about KBB users than they do about the actual winner. Compiled from the responses of more than 12,000 shoppers on KBB.com over the past year, there are 13 categories broken into non-luxury, luxury and truck segments "representing the combined wisdom of the American car-buying public."
The award categories have been revamped this year, with some dropping off, some new ones appearing and at least one other given a new term. What isn't surprising is that Honda won Most Trusted Brand for the second year running, Best Value Brand for the third year in a row and took Best Overall Brand, which wasn't on last year's list of awards.
On our own shores, in the non-luxury categories Chrysler got Most Refined Brand and Buick took Best Value Luxury Brand. Neither one of those marques won anything in last year's Brand Image Awards, while Cadillac, which won Best Interior Design Brand and Best Comfort Brand last year - those awards disappeared this year - went home without a single accolade.
