This site will be dedicated to the transformation of my truck from normal to crazy. I will outline what I am planing to do and what has been done. I will post pitures of what everything looked and looks like. I want your opinion on what you think I should do to my truck next and what you think is the best. Your input will be greatly appreciated. STUFF July 20, 2003
Did I say that I'd have pictures up soon? What I meant was, it will be a while. Well, I've gotten even more done since my last up date. I met a guy who got me a really good deal on a drop kit. So for only $250, I have a 3in drop in the front thanks to lowered coils, a 4in drop in the rear thanks to blocks, and 4 lowered shocks. Looks mighty fine if you ask me. It's looks more on its way than it ever has. Next on my agenda is the rims. Because we all know that lowered trucks with stock rims, just don't look that great. And since I'm working just about every day of the week, the money should be on its way. But don't look for any new chrome baddies for at least 3 months or so. I'm just really broke right now.....and rent is not too far away.

I'm sure getting good at not updating this site. I'm sorry about that. I have a lot going. But I got my truck fixed (a while ago), and let me tell you, it looks great. I've also done a few more mods. I installed a Pacesetter Dual Exhaust system and an AirMax air intake. Gives me that mean sound and better response that I've been looking for. But I'm determined to get some new pictures taken, because the ones up now are way too old. So look for that in the near future.

Wow, it's been a long time since an update. I'm only on here now because I have a bit of bad news. I got in an accident with my baby today. It wasn't my fault, but my Dak is pretty messed up. Check out the pictures below. So now I'll have to wait a few weeks for it to get out of the shop, before i do anything else to it. Woe is me.

So I check my bank account and realize that I have a large amount of monetary backing. So I decide to get some more of my truck done. So I bought a K&N air intake (new) off of ebay for $90. Unconditional Lifetime warranty sounds good. So I bought it, but the fool canceled the order saying that the part was defective. How stupid is that? So now I'm still searching for an reliable intake for a small amount of money. Anyone have any ideas?

Well, I finally got my speakers installed and they sound amazing. It's weird how you get used to crappy speakers and don't realize what you were missing until you have new ones. Any way, I will get some pictures taken and put up soon. As for other mods.......I'll leave that up to speculation.

Wow, long time no update. Well i bought two pairs of Sony 6.5" 200 watt 3-way speakers. They are pretty rockin, but i still have to install them. I'll probably get that finished this weekend. I have been truly trashed with work these past two months. I work around 25 hours a week, have 18 credit hours at Arizona State, not to mention Club Volleyball starting for ASU, and a girlfriend to spend time with (that's the only fun part of my week). So i have neither the time, nor energy, to do anything with my truck (or website) right now. I'll try to get some pics up as soon as i can. But like i said, i'm busy (and not "lazy busy" like in the past.....i'm truly busy).

Well, since I haven't said anything lately, I might as well. I updated the 'Me' section. Aren't you all surprised and happy? I still need to take pictures of my updated truck. It's not much different, just no decals. Plus I just bought a new grill, so as soon as I get that put on and my truck washed, i'll take some updated pictures. Until then, you'll just have to live your lives like you normally would.

I hope everyone had a nice Independence Day. I know I did. Instead of watching fire works, I went to the casino with my girlfriend. She won and I lost. That's how life is. While I was there, I noticed a dent on the front bumper on the driver side. It's really big, about a foot tall and 5 inches across. I have no idea what happened. I bet some bastard hit me in a parking lot and took off. It shouldn't be that tough to knock back into place. There doesn't seem to be much scratching on the paint. So it's not as bad as I make it out to be. But now that I've had my job for a month or so, I'm generating a good sum of money. Soon I will be able to do some more to my baby and post some pictures. Until then, sit tight.

Well I finally got my truck back from the shop today. After $1086 worth of parts and labor, I got my head gaskets fixed. It was a pain in my ass. But now I have it back, so I'm happy.

Well, I'm having all sorts of problems with my truck. I took it in because the water pump was busted, causing it to overheat. Then on the way home from the shop, my truck was running like a little girl. So we took it back and one of the head gaskets was shot. So now I won't have my baby back until the end of the week. Man this is costing me a lot of money! So I expect any mods to be pushed back.
