Competition Build your dream truck!

[mattymac]

What would you guys build if you could have one truck to do it all? Money isnt an option but the truck has to be a daily driver, could sledpull, dragrace, tow trailers and of course must look and function good. Other than that anything goes, Any year style or setup.



Im thinking of getting a new Mega Cab soon and this is what I was thinking,



4dr shortbed 4x4 larimie Megacab with EVERYTHING

Kore or Kelderman suspension on 35x12. 5x18

Suncoast or DTT full billet auto

Olee's B1/B2 twins with a 5 in straight pipe and a pacbrake

TST, Smarty (when its released), EZ stacked with some F1 EDM's

CP3 mod, Or a P-pump conversion, FASS

Cam, Studded and O ringed

Pillar gauges, train horn, Ram air hood, custom paint job

Ill think of more later but Im curious to see what you guys can come up with.
