Thank you! I spent a lot of time researching tire sizes, wheel sizes, offsets, and lift sizes to get the proportions.
They are 37x13.50 R20 on 20x12 with -44 offset.

Then, some dick would deliberately run into him, just for the insurance claim and say he stopped without any concern, or remorse.

Good news! The Super Duper aka The Redneck Limousine aka The Hillbilly Limo aka The Absurd Black Truck has officially been accepted if into our family! Here's how I know:

Yesterday I drove my Honda Accord to work. Halfway through the day I got a text from my neighbor asking if everything was ok. As far as I knew everything was ok, but that kind of question definitely requires follow up! I asked why he would ask, and he responded that he saw the "gigantic black truck" parked at the doctors office he works at. My boys had doctor appointments there and Wife decided to drive themin the big truck! SUCCESS!

Your wife is a brave soul. My wife had to drive my CC 8’ bed for a week and a half due to her truck being down and she hated every min of it. She would have called an Uber before driving your beast.

That's pretty awesome. What did she think? Especially parking? My wife has driven all three of my trucks one time each. And she absolutely made it clear to me how much she did not like it. I'm not sure if I could get her to ever drive it again.

When I asked her what she thinks about driving it, she shrugged and said "Eh, it's not much different from driving your other big trucks."

Last night on a lark, I took the 4 younger youngsters to a car show at a local 50s style burger joint. While walking around the show, I noticed an empty stall, so I asked the promoter if he wanted another car. I explainedto him what I had (3 times) and he said "yeah! Bring it in!"

The kids had fun, I had fun. Watching people's expressionsand reactions was the best! Some folks smiled. Some folks stopped with their mouths agape. Some climbed underneath top check out the underside, but the best was when people would stand confused as though their brains were saying "does not compute!"

Man!

I bet it feels incredible to finally be able to enjoy that truck! It looks great & it looks like you've gotten the most important nod of approval, your family's!

Awesome! Hoping to take my boy that's actually interested in a car show to one sometime... they are few and far between in my area. Bet your truck was about 2x as long as the old Bronco next to it!

It's not a '67, it's a '65. It's a nice car. I love the way your truck just kinda pokes it's nose out there. Maybe you should have backed it up over the curb. Nah, never mind. It's an attention getter, that's for sure.
