if you were to receive $100,000 from, lets say, a custom auto-crafter or some other kind of spnsor, what would you do with it? customiz the truck you have now, or buy a new one and do everything aftermarket? get a mtaching truck/boat/trailer type thing?

96 or 97 F250 Super Cab 4x4 diesel, I would then try to get the most tourque/horsepower I could out of it, then lift the truck 2 inches and put on 33. I would then buy a 10 foot Camper and do some matching pin striping on them. I would build my 84 F150 with enough power to drag race. Finally I would also get a trailer to tow my 84 F150 to drag races. Sound Good?

If it ain't broke.....change stuff till it is!

OK..One things for sure..i wouldn't buy a Ford. I'de buy a 99' Dodge Ram 2500 4x4, and lift it with about a 3" body and 4" suspension. Put some 35" Mudders on it and slap some RollBars with lights on her. Then get a custom Bumper with winch. Then slap some fender flares on and a Rhino lining(or similar lining) for the Bed. That would be my ride. Those Rams look awesome!! Chevy's look like crap jacked up, and i don't like the new ford trucks(to sporty).
