I used to garage crawl all the time before I trucked a bunch of rocks in the backyard!

Oh....here's some reading for you

Quote:
cookie

Origin: 1703

You won't hear cookie in England. But you will in the United States, thanks to our Dutch forebears. Cookie is a Dutch term meaning "little cake." It was brought to the New World by the Dutch settlers of New Amsterdam. Though they lost the colony to the English, who promptly renamed it New York in 1674, the Hollanders maintained their hearty practices. In 1703, it was reported, certain New York residents of Dutch ancestry laid out for a funeral "rum, beer, gloves, rings," one and a half gross of pipes, and eight hundred "cockies." Cookies were also a Dutch treat for New Year's Day, along with pound cake, wine, and a drink called cherry bounce (made of cider, whiskey and cherries).

During the 1700s the sweet, flat little cakes became the favorites of New Yorkers of all backgrounds. In 1786, for example, a New York newspaper complained about "idle boys, who infest our markets and streets, with baskets of cookies." From New York, cookies made themselves at home throughout the country by means of travelers, recipes, and hungry children. In the late twentieth century, when a children's television show wanted to associate a leading character with a culinary passion, who else could they imagine but a monster who loved cookies?

Nice truck. Could I see some shots of the truck with the body off please? Also did you use T/E Maxx shafts for the drives on that thing? What is the Length or it?

sorry guys for the wait.

heres some specs on the truck:

TLT chassis
custom center locker made from a ta04 center pulley
stampede half-shafts
stock sliver can
geolandars
fully waterproof(flipped over in the water and it still runs fine, i have the pic but its blurry)

i know the front shocks are weird but i plan to lengthen the chassis even more when i get the money.
ohh and the chassis leans alittle because one of the links is broken(u can see it in the 2nd pic)

Sweet rig man. I like it I am getting mine Friday!!!! So happy can't wait. What ESC are you using, cause I am gonna put a water-proofed one in my TLT, just because its gonna be for trails and not really climbing that much. Water is nice the e-maxx loves it. LOL.
