Morning everyone.

We finally got a little snow over the weekend here. Alot of blowing snow, so alot of drifts.

On our crossroad that crosses over the highway, where we have to turn onto the highway, the snow was about 3 feet deep in the middle of the road where it had drifted up!

The ol 7.3 plowed through it real well, but I seen at the next road over, there was someone in a ford focus stuck, and getting pulled out!

Black Matte to match the wheels...nothing shiny. Steps and accessories getting powdercoated black.

Blacking out the truck.

I realize some people like chrome and might criticize me for doing this...but I always felt any chrome looked odd on this truck, due to the black tinted windows and other black stuff. Should look good when I'm done with it.

Plans are also to get rid of the headlights and go with the HD 05 model headlights and 05 front end.
