Arrow looking for input

I am asking a favor of whoever reads this thread. Take a look at my web page. www.freewebs.com/frdtrkman/ and let me know what you think. I want some honest feedback, good or bad. I only have these two pics for now.

Welcome to FTE.

Nice truck. I like the design of your site, but it loads slow. I'm no computer guru so I don't know what you can do to speed it up.

I am no computer guy myself. I found this freeweb host. I am actually looking for feedback about my truck not the web page.

It is a nice looking truck.

Must suck trying to get in there to do a tune up though.
Where did you get the kit to reverse the hood?

I bought them a few years ago and the place I got them from is out of business. Don't know where to get them anymore.

Nice start to the page. Can hardly wait for the mods page to fill up. The page loaded fine for me but I am at work with a T1 connection.
More photos and descriptions....

Nice truck! The only thing I don't like is the blocked-off rear side window treatment.

Great minds think alike- I was just about to post the same statement. Great paint job, nice balance of chrome, nice brush guard- I like the chrome-and-white rearview mirrors. REAL nice rims. I really think it would look better without those scoops over the rear side windows, though.

I also would lose the side window scoops. How about engine size decal on the cowl hood in the same color as the rear? I did that on mine, I matched the 4X4 decal on rear. Maybe silver part of grill in the blue from the rear? Other than those ideas? I do like your truck, very well thought out. Good job

Great paint scheme! Often wished I had an all white "X" to add fireside paint to but then the family would probably revolt!

if you become a club FTE member you get web space and people can vuew it by clicking next to your name. i'm gonna join one of these days. as far as your truck: that thing is sweet. we need some interior shots. maybe a sound clip also. i'm assuming it sounds mean. i like your rear fenders. i thought it was a dually for a second. did you make that yourself to cover up the wider tires?
