With all due respect to those people that like to radicaly modify their trucks from their original form . My take on it is if you don't like the truck as it was designed don't f**k it up . Having said that - Your truck is your truck to do with as you please and in this country that's called freedom of choice and I did my time in the service to defend it . Now what's the differance driving around a original truck or one that has been modifyed to he!! ? Your still are only driving it around for your own pleasure . My fire truck was not bought because of a not so sudden "Craze" among us Bolters . May be we are just getting more vocal . Since I was a kid I've wanted a fire truck . Now that I'm a Big kid - I have finally gotten one . This truck Will be put back to work as as a volunteer Wildfire / RFD backup pumper / tanker truck - help with the fire safty programs at the local schools and Yes once in a blue moon it may even see a parade or save a burning chemical plants secret papers (lol John). Forgive my tyrade but the subject of radicaly modifying a perfectly good vehicle always get's my Irish up . Again no disrespect is intended to Freedo or those who may hold a differant opinon on the subject than I . Even I have to admit that there are some Really Nice modifyed trucks out there . Ed H
