Boy, I don't know. It looks cool but it doesn't.
I'm wondering if swapping some of colors around would make it better.
I don't like the green bumper...I bet you would get get a different feel with this truck if you saw it in person.

Well, after all it is just a manure spreader.

Maybe if it had a little more red?

Should of photo-shopped it first - would be classy as an all black truck with the door art. As it stands (knowing that the camera isn't flattering) the green makes the fenders look too fat. < Start of PSA: Don't try this line at home. End of PSA>

Way too much. Good looking truck in stock form. Looks like it still has decent springs and tires. White letters should be in.

The yellow manure spreader beaters (grille) doesn't look good. Overall nice truck but maybe less use of the green.

How about these two John Deere painted trucks? For some reason they look more like real John Deere service trucks. The previous one looks like the green and yellow was an after thought. The Deere Green just doesn't look good with the black...

Definitely a lot better with a chrome grill and stock headlights. Well, I mean, as better as it can get with the Manure Spreader grill.

Here's a quickie just to give you an idea of how much better it would look with a Monkey Face.
