1:1 Overlands - member's trucks/SUVs

I hope this isn't too off topic, but has anyone ever started a thread where members can post pics of their full sized overlands? If not, I would really like to see what everyone's real rides look like - specifically trucks/SUVs. Anyone have some pics to post?



I sure would like to have a 1:28 drivable version.

I did some searches and looked around the board but couldn't find any threads specificaly dedicated to members' trucks/SUVs. Maybe I missed something?

Here's a little creative parking...

Here's my big toy

stats:
2wd, 350 vortech, hooker super comp headers, 3" exhaust, hooker aerochamber muffler, turn down exit in front of rear axle...
K&N kit, MSD 6A ignition box, MSD coil, some random 8.5mm wires, mild port job on the heads / intake manifold...

the exterior stuff is obvious, all work is self done, I removed all the chrome, the trim, had a shop paint the grill GMC logo black...

It looks exactly how I want it to, I do want larger tires, but its southern california and no where to go mudding anyways

I take it then you've never seen what fully optioned full size gmc trucks look like?

If I removed the strips on the bumpers and had them painted, the rub strip mounts into the bumper with 2" bolts every 6"s or so, so I cannot remove them and have the clean look that I want.

Just for reference, here's how the truck looked brand new:

The chrome I am referring to runs the length of the truck and over the wheel wells.

I really like the blacked out look of the truck. Looks very sleek and clean.

Eh, it's not really a truck or an SUV... but is AWD! Plus it's a pretty nice pic, and this thread needs some life.

This is my mom's car BTW....
