    yea but its still a beta. i am thinking of using different rims. those on the pic are the factory rims from a H2. hell most of the changes on there i stole from a H2. lol. i want to sell my tahoe to get a H2 but my truck wouldnt go for more than $12,000 on a trade in. sad that such a great truck insnt worth more. but im glad that it has a higher resell than comparible Explorers and Durangos.

    THAT'S a bit better. Kill the stupid light rack, lower the side rails, rip off the winch assembly and put on brush guards and I'll take it...

    the plow assembly is a keeper becuase it makes me money. i put the light rack on becuase i love blinding people with the plow lights and i figure now i can blind the people in those damn linkon navigators. grr they piss me off so much. damn women drivers that hit my truck! :grr:

    I wouldn't mind a winch or a plow, but not on a raised truck. That's what I'd want an old junker for - don't want to ruin the tranny on good truck!

    I like tinted windows btw ;)

    Sorry but I almost fell off my chair laughing when I saw that pic. It's.. it's.. just so very wrong when you put low profile wheels on a vehicle intended for off-road.

    Just imagine if I put mudders on my car...

    99% of all Esclade owners are so rich that they would get a trail paved rather than actualy go off the road and god forbid it gets dirty!

    ok not all americans like american cars, personally im a ricer myself, i actually have designs and plans for a show car i am going to build, once i have the money of course.
    The paint job alone for mine will cost a good 20 thousand

    alright onto froggy, you dont want the blue lights on your car unless you hook it up to a switch (like i did) because one night i left the switch on and went home with a $117 fine.

    Anyways i learned my lesson about lights, in short, there tacky, gimme a nice HID kit and some HID fog lights and im happy :D .

    but i would personally like to own a nissan skyline, or buy a nissan 240sx drop an RB26DETT engine in it (R34 Skyline engine), supe that bad boy up and i would take any V8 on anyday and i bet you i would win. Not that i dont like a good old fashioned HUGEMUNGUS engine but i perfer a sweet J-spec motor and a nice throaty, not too much, exhaust and im happy.

    My .02 :D


    *EDIT*
    oops i didnt even mention the topic, spinning hubcaps are ub3r gay, but i would not mind owning spinning rims cause ive rolled up next to an Escalade with 22 inch spinning rims (not hubcaps but rims) and it was sweet, now you people probably havent heard about the spinning WIRE rims, ya know the kind on latino lowriders, i havent seen them but i think it would look crazy :eeek:
