Just got some pics of my truck on CarDomain.
I would appreciate some comments. Tell me what you think, or what I'm missing.

I would change the rims(reminds me of a Ford for some reason) and the red decals(maybe silver?)and add chrome bed rails. Just being extremely picky, thats a nice ride.

Well, I appreciate your opinion. I'm hoping to get new rims, they just keep falling on the list of importance. I'm going to get rid of the decals all together, but some dumbass taped them up when painting the doors. So if I take off the decals I got two layers of paint. Sucks pretty bad, but will just have to wait untill I can get them painted. And for the bedrails, uhh, not really what i'm going for. Thanks for feedback though.

Overall, good job!
The rims are not my taste, but most aren't anyway. They do go with the truck though. Neat interior, have you thought about getting a trim piece for the dash (goes around the tach and other gauges)? I have the flame ones, but got a trim piece so the whole things isn't white/flames.
What's next on the to-do list?

Well, the gauges are pretty neat at night. Their indiglo blue and have a unique shape when glowing (you can't tell in the daytime) so I just don't think and overlay would look right. When I get some night pics up, you'll understand what i mean. I'm questioning on what to do next. I have a poll up on the site that asks that exact question. I'm stuck between four things.
1.) Shave the V6 emblems
2.) Paint the Door Handles
3.) Shave the tailgate handle
4.) Get fender flares.
You tell me what you think is more important right now. Thanks for the reply

A pretty clean truck.
BUT as a CRITIC myself I HAVE to ask this...
Is that DUAL outlet exhaust back there on your V6? That's a little on the RICE side in my book.
And I LOVE killing the V6's in my area who look that bad ass. There's one in particluar on my street that has R/T like wheels, lowered, etc but is no R/T or V8 for that matter.
.
Now you will have to drop in a V8 and true duals to redeem yourself. Better get busy LOL! HEy, couldn't resist but I'm sure you will get similar feedback on the streets.

Nice truck, Good job with all the audio/video components.
But, the wheels, while a personal choice, are on backwards! Yes they can go either way. Any good wheel shop will tell you though that they should push, not pull.
Again, nice truck, for a RC.

Yeah, maybe a little on the poser side, but that's gonna just have to do for now. I've got 2 more semisters of college, then off to make money. I'm hoping to get a new truck, and make this a fix-er-uper. When this happens, and damm I hope it does- it will already look fast and will be ready for that crate to arive. But that's just dreamin' I guess. And don't worry i've had enough shlt talked, this ain't gonna phase me, especially since the (WONTSUM?) but just thought it would make for an interesting sight. For the rims, I've turned them around before and it just doesn't look right. The way that they look now when turning is pretty bad-azz. Ohh, don't wanna call myself dumb, but RC ??? Never hurd of that one, fill me in.
