I haven't really updated this recently. The truck has been at the mechanic since late december. The owner wrote it off and bought a new vehicle (Escape Hybrid) and said that if I pay off the work to diagnose, the truck would be mine. So today, we finally got it home. When my friend's garage is finished getting rebuilt, he is going to help me put it all back together (and figure out what went wrong in the first place).

I can then start doing some ecomods. I want to put in an electric fan for sure, not sure about any other engine mods yet (If anybody has any ideas, I'm all ears ). I will also end up putting some aerodynamic mods on. Definitely going to some sort of air dam, probably an extended belly pan (the front has a wannabe one) and then eventually the roof rack kammback that I originally wanted to do.
