Hey, I can dig that. 👍.

Mostly just cause red's Sons fav color. And HUGE Ga Bulldog fans. Go DAWGS!! #1 in the country atm.

But if not those things my next choice would have been mayan Aztec with some black tribal tatt looking paint.

Funny enough I've already thought that out. 💯😉
 
Sooo....🤣😣. Went to put my work (wheels and tires)on the truck. Had the 12mm hubs on so switched out 3 of 4 hex then the 4th 12mm is split. 🤷. Whelp on to 24 long thread screws I don't wanna junk the clear coat on. And 4 more pieces to clear coat. 💩!!!! 😁
Oh yea brightside is. Atleast I found out before running and possibly losing wheel and looking dumb right off the bat tom. 😆

Off topic but what is Marlboro NXT? havent smoked in a long time just curious.
 
After an all day wait. At about 6:15pm. I finally get time, find a spot I'm good with, and here we go....

So the 📷 woman, my wife, and i get out of the car. I get battery plugged up and truck on. Take it down into the grass and just running around warming up.

Try and picture this....small basketball court on my right. Its elevated from the cut grass to the left down a nice ramp style piece of land. Covered in grass. All just cut last few days. I hand over transmitter to wife to play long enough to scare herself. Just a min lol. She hands it back.

Heres where its starts. She asks for the phone to video it. I tell her "yea ok just a min." I bring the truck up to myself and took that pic. ☝. Drove truck up and around the right side of b ball court. Which is higher than the court. So a big 2 step drop off. Going from right to left.
I head down the hill toward b ball court. Onto the court. On the throttle riding a wheelie the length of court. Sooo sweet! 💯💪. I knew it would launch off the court back to grass. So on the throttle I stayed. Off the court into the air. All is well. Hyped matter of fact. It comes down not outa sight but only could see top of truck. TILL...it must have dug the front end in blowing in somw fashion front left zd racing shock.

It SHOOTS straight up into the air!! 6 cartwheels in air. I SWEAR! ASK MY WIFE. 😆. Comes down and bounces on back left wheel. Blows the shock out! Up in air again! Back down on the top!

Who knows what all is bent yet. Turn buckles look funny. But its hard to tell till I get it apart. I thought it was all good for a moment. Scooped it up. Looked around and all seemed ok. Hit throttle. nothing crazy sounding. Started to go then the back left hits the ground and the spring flies out. Lol.

So what also was forgotten...yes, the video was never started. No proof of 1 of the coolest wrecks I've seen. Youtube or not. And a broken ass truck that doesn't talk.

In looking it at it after. The ground had a nice divot where the front planted. Look at the front of the truck. I put granite bumper on it and frim bumper to skid plate. Its dipped in. Not smooth. Seems like that coulda helped ALOT.

Yes no?? 🤷

If you face plant your rig I dont think its gonna matter what kind of bumper and skid plate you had on it. Sounds pretty epic 🤣

The ground was a bit soft and it just dug in instead of skidding or anything. Its a box under my bumper.

But super lucky this time! Only a busted rear stock shock. It unseated

Oh, I have done a fair bit of pondering. Doing a bit right now myself 😉 Maybe I have the wrong strain?

Yes sir. Most definitely. Lol. It's my Xanax. My Tylenol. My coffee. Sometimes a snack but not my style most times. I fight laziness as it is🤤
