Smoke was black, meaning its running rich, not terrible. The build was good, they chopped the top and everything but the suspension was weak since it didnt lay out.   As for the minitruckin comments, you have to understand how it is out there in Cali, and realize that theyre reffering to the 80s and 90s all the time. Theyre talking about water falls and fishbowls and shit like that, not dressed up clean ass trucks that tuck huge rims.

i thought he was reffering to waterfalls, and fishbowls, due to Pimp my ride.

---------------------------------------------Originally posted by BOOOGHARi missed most of the episode (fergot it was on) but ryan does have a graphic arts dept that does that kinda thing on a daily basis - hell they did all those wraps at SEMA so im sure his guy knows photoshop

---------------------------------------------I cut logos on a pretty regular basis and I know enough that you can trace out the exact logo you are trying to cut in autocad.  Quick google search and I could have that traced in an hour in CAD and cut the real logo. Sorry, when you see people getting super rich at something you are way better at, it kinda strikes a nerve. The font they used was nowhere close.

So I stayed up till 12 lastnight as they had a later airing and ill have to say im pretty impressed. Overall, everything was simple and not over the top. Even though the truck didnt lay, its still pretty bad ass. I like how they tubbed the notch in too. Interior was nice although i didnt care for the emblems on the seats... they kinna look like they would come off with enough wear and tear. The story on that truck is pretty crazy. I hope it has better luck now. I think I like the truck so much because they did alot to it that I want to do to mine... even the color. A big to WCC on this one

Not sure what you are talking about, the idea that a lot of people are labeling mini truckers with over here is the Baller Status guys with the lanbos and 28's and things like that. The old school mini style, you see more of that coming out of the mid-west and east coast from the magazines. Jesse does love his VW's, my stepbrother started with him when they built the Wambulance and later Jesse hired him to stay on and my bro was a big VW guy and that was the one major thing him and Jesse had in common

How is a pimp my ride reference a dig at minitrucks? Nice to see that its a easy way into making fun of the west. on that attempt. Yep we suck no cool rides at all.  We didn't see anything crazy at our show. Not at all. Just a bunch of stock rides.  Jesse knows all about how hard it is. Bobby used to mess with him all the time when he worked there.

Turns out Street Truck is shooting a feature on that truck right now as we speak. You can see it on LowLifeVideo TV right now.
