Cheers, fellas. Glad to be able to share the build with y’all all along the way. The response on day one was really something.

One of the cleanest and nicest builds I have ever seen in person along with off-road capability. Really nice work David!
PS- Thanks for the cold brews and hospitality!

I got posters and stickers today, I love the matt finish on the posters. Can’t wait for the shirts and hoodie.
David the Burb turned out excellent, such attention to detail and function combined with memories and visual cues. You deserve a major pat on the back and you should be proud.
Hanging in my wife's office, also in the background of all of her meetings.
Seen pics and videos and still even cooler in person! I made it my mission to find it on friday haha!
Was good to chat with you too

Back home. Lots to update, but generally a successful showing of the truck and an effective marketing tool for Seymour and the other sponsors.
This is a good tired.

Epic picture!
So glossy!
Get her first scratch yet?
Got a couple of nicks on the way out there, but honestly, I'm not looking too hard for them. I'll feel less stressed after I get it PPF'd, but I kind of got burned out on suburban work and need a bit of a break.
The whole thing has been parked since immediately after the show. Between the AZ trip and Christmas travel, I was in town for a total of 8 days through to the end of 2025 after getting home from SEMA, so no chance to do anything with it.
Then, I did a social and general internet cleanse through to December 63rd, but I'm ready to get sloppy with projects and photos. First up, wife gets a gate.
Then, double adjustable jack stands.

Then Charger exhaust. Most of the Vibrant parts have shown up.
David
Can't wait to see what you do with the exhaust, I have a sneaky suspicion on that one.
I washed the truck. It hasn’t left the OP since after SEMA.
I’m getting over the shiny paint stress, and will register it in a couple of weeks. It’s been off Texas’ books since 2024.
First:
-fix LED tail lights
-add underhood insulation
-level front end to rear so I have usable travel
-fiddle with magnum detent
-find that annoying squeak in the middle seat area

Are you going to at least do PPF?
Enjoyed spending time under the truck. Fresh oil and grease.
Also, dog butt.
