I had the honors of putting the first scratches on this thing yesterday at Folsom.
I must say that pictures don't do it justice! What an incredible build, Brandon did a stellar job on this thing and it's capability is just rediculous! The 3-speed is sweet!
Thanks for letting me thrash on it for you!.... Video soon?

I especially loved the part where you rolled it onto its roof after putting all the granite rock rash on the fenders. At least it looked good doing it!

Thanks Greg! Balboa would be the perfect stomping grounds for this rig. We (my gf and I) might plan a trip down there to visit some friends, that might have to be a stop along the way I will let you know

Thumbs up

You really need to put some drivers in there and some ATVs in the rear.One of the coolest 6x6 builds in my opinon.Unique fabrication,it came together very well.
