I wish my Ol' Lady smiled like that when I brought mine home. I had body armor on when I pulled in the driveway and hid all the knives before I went to bed for the first week...seriously, lol.

Your last picture reminded me that I need to put the star back on my bumper. I never added it back when I replaced it. I always liked that little detail.

Congrats on a nice truck and hope the rest of the recovery goes well.

Yes, the truck is a recent re-build from 2012 - so essentially no rust issues. I think I'll add a camo paint scheme but now I kind of like the solid mean green... So idk what I'll end up doing.

Yeah, I got lucky to get two stars on my bumper - one painted and the other (my cute wife)! She was quite the trooper - I'll post some more photos and videos soon.

I like the solid green look. In fact, I like it so much I'm probably going to paint mine the same way!

Welcome to the club!

Nice looking MV! Congratulations! [thumbzup]

The hobby is fun, but having an awesome 'Soldier B'
makes it even better.

There are lots of ways to paint these MVs, but mine is
plain 383 CARC green and I love it!

Congrats! Appears to be in SUPER condition, too.

I think you're demonstrating a very healthy understanding of what you're getting into by declaring it your "1st MV" right from the introduction thread. From the look of that smile, your wife will probably need her own before too long anyway.

Great looking truck, does your wife know about the model you hired ??? Just kidding, my wife is also very into my addiction and it makes it GREAT !!!

So, just curious, why did you stop in OH? Where did you start from?
