question how is primer over rated?  if you are working on the truck and shave it but not ready to paint the truck you have to have some primer. me personally i would rather see a truck that is full primer then a truck with primer spots. i understand some people who have primer will never end up painting the truck and in that case shouldnt use primer should have went with flat black paint. but those who are actualy going to put paint on the truck but are not ready or have the money yet i see nothing wrong with running primer.

1. "ATTUTUDES"..... we seem to almost capsizing our own "scene". you dont see the old hot rodders smack-talking on each other. more of a push-to-be-better vibe from them. 2. "BUILT NOT BOUGHT". is one i agree with. nothing wrong with buying a quality ride by no means. it beats having a hack-built truck anyday.  i do give 110% props and every accomplishment to someone who builds from nothing to have that "perfect" ride. nothing feels betetr to compete against a rider thats been shop-built, and win. 3. "SPRAY-BOMBING".  having shaved handles, antenna, pissers, etc. then on a whim, just buying 10 cans of krylon and spray bombing the whole truck knowing you didnt have to. to me, thats wasted moneys you would have had in your hand, bank or in prep. if you have a gameplan, schedule for paint or at least a goal in mind, thats different

1. The black outfits.- Black black black black black. C'mon y'all know wearing that shit all the time gets hot as he'll.

2. Minitrucker lifestyle.- Ok there's nothing wrong with being extremely into your hobby, but calling it a lifestyle? STUPID! 3. Built not bought.- I don't give a shit how u got ur badass ride. Just don't claim u didjumbo work if it's not true!

Oh and hi Jumbo! I'm coming out of hiding.

i disagree 100% with "built not bought" crap. yes i did buy mine but if everyone built their own trucks what would happen to all the finished rides out there. we would never see them at shows or nothing. i enjoy seein trucks that were built 5-10 years ago and most likely it a new owner. just my thoughts. i believe its keeping the scene alive!
