Hi, my name is Jake and I'm from California, I've been modifying vehicles my whole life and have been slowly graduating to a better vehicle every time. I started with a 1992 ford ranger then moved to a 1989 Jeep Cherokee that I absolutely adored, but an opportunity came up for me to trade the XJ for this 2005 Dodge 1500. The truck is almost immaculate minus some scratches on the bed rails and a dented rear bumper, but I plan on bed lining the truck and buying bed rail caps to cover those nicks and dents. I'm 20 years old and go to school full time and work part time at OSH. I started a build thread with what I've done in the last three weeks, the build may be a tad slow sometimes but I plan on lifting it, getting some stance, great subs (kind of an audiophile), tinting the windows, and maybe some extra lighting. Everything will be done in my front yard, my dad and I put a six inch lift on his f250 last year and did all the work including painting to my Cherokee in my front yard. Looking forward to learning from and contributing to this forum for hopefully many years.

Post the link to your build thread. You'll certainly find no shortage of opinions here. Lol.
