I do it mostly for the self gratification. I luv to take something that looks normal and make it look carzy. Plus it shows people what I'm able to do. I like to do things that make people as "Why would you do a thing like that". I also like doing little things that not a lot of people notice, but when they do they are amazed.

i guess for me its the pride i take in my truck.... the attention , obviously, when people break their necks left and right EVERY street u go on.... even bigger for me is here in north dakota... theres is hardly any minitrucks... and having one of the only minitrucks that is "full show" one of the craziest in the state, its a good feeling that im one of the only few that have one... and knowing that if somebody else wants to have something phatter... they;re gonna have to take the years and thousands of $$$ to catch up, like i said... pride, love meeting other minitruckers, its so easy to relate to any minitrucker about anything, love going to shows, when u live up here there is no shows that have any trucks, so we make it to 1 to 2 shows a year, mainly indy bash, this year its reso and gville and indy, but i can honestly say ive never had more fun in my entire 20 years of living, than being at indy bash with my toyota cruisin with the best of em(Especially since it was the 1st time i had driven it in a year and a half, literally got it running and drove it on the trailer the day before we left.... i know u all agree , keep em comin !!!

damn steve thats a good question. Well Id have to say its bcuz that damn MINITRUCKIN' mag I picked up way back late 90. When I picked up that mag & flipped thru it for the 1st time & saw the rides in there,I knew at that moment I had to have one. Then I started hangin out w/ guys in my town that had minis(David Hughes Raspberry Delight was one of those minis but back then it was lowered stock rolling pathy & a topper) & slammed cars ('83 4 door chavy cav that would drag goin thru an intersection). The friendships that started back then I still have. So maybes thats the reason the friendshsips & fun we had. The rest is just icing on the cake

Well, I grew up in a shop. And, when I was about 12, we moved locations, and in the same court, was a small shop building mini trucks. I liked what they were doing better than at our shop (4x4s), so I hung out there when I could. Started fabbing around then too, and I loved what they did. Now, 5 years later, I'm building my own. Probably for the same reasons I build bikes. I want the attention. I want to stand out from the crowd, and break necks like was said before. Also just want to drive something cool around every day! Building a daily driver...
