Sorry to hear about your dad man, that blows.


However, your truck is looking amazing! And... to be honest, I never thought I'd see a fully laid out dually. Just sayin...

Sorry to hear about your dad.

On a lighter note, your truck is looking sick! Congrats on making it into SEMA. Well done! Can't wait to see it in the new color.

On the bright side the truck looks really fuckin good. Im already liking the color. looks kinda like a blue on some toyotas.


speaking of toyotas, there was a green taco featured on Mini Truckin in the Nov. issue.

I love the black.. it looks fucking mean.

Dan is competing in shows though and to compete you can't just have a boring old stock color. I imagine that's why he is painting it. You have to stand out.

Not to mention that with this truck being a show/advertising/magazine truck, I'm sure it will see a lot of different wheel/tire and paint combos in the next couple of years.

I was browsing through the magazines at the airport in Ft. Lauderdale on my way home from the Bahamas last weekend and saw the mag with Potter's dually on the cover. Truck looked incredible.
