I love that truck, love the dark blue and the chrome accents, love that it's not been all blacked out! Just needs a chrome rear bumper .... and maybe side bars?

Great Dad you got there, look after him!

What kind of front grille guard is that ... ... I want one.

Lastly .... why are the fog lights aimed upwards?

Thanks. Ya he is great. As far as the grille guard its a Westin stainless steel bull bar. And the fog lights arent really aiming upwards. It the plastic covers. They dont like to go on right.
