Only with my morning coffee... Nice Truck! What's the tint on the front windshield?
It may just be the shadows lol I don't have any tint on the windshield other than on the doors and and back windows. It's 5% all around

Nice video, thanks for sharing! I do rather enjoy some donuts as well but tend to do them in the snow, or just sliding around in general is fun!

Not since I bent an axle and blew the engine all in the same self induced spin some 45 years ago. 74 C-10, 350cid, snow packed street. Over reved that 350 and slammed sideways into the curb.

The truck is sitting on King Coilovers set at a 2" level. Rides amazing. The oem bilsteins weren't cutting it anymore. The bumper is made by Adictive Desert Design and its called the "Stealth Fighter"

I was 17, in high school and it was dad’s new truck. Yeah...learned a hard lesson that night which explains why it’s the last time I turned a donut in a vehicle.

Great video and nice looking truck!


That looks like a lot of fun but I don't have any where to do it. I am also afraid to damage my truck. :( She is the first vehicle I have ever been able to put in a garage. I want to keep her looking nice.

I feel you bud! My truck has had its fare shares of dings and dents while offroading but thats why I bought the rebel. I thought about trading in for the TRX but I can't justify ruining a 100k truck lol

Donuts? Ah heck no! All that flexing and g-forces from doing donuts is what is causing the cracks/leaks in the rear sliding window frames!

There's a trail near me in the middle of nowhere that I pulled into one day after it had rained and I instantly got stuck. I was in 2wd, so after putting it in 4, I did a quick donut and got back on the pavement. So far thats the only one. I always do a bit of drifting on wet pavement and especially donuts in empty parking lots in the snow with everything I drive. I try not to push it too far these days though. I like this truck too much and money's tight.

Never thought to take a vid or pics. That was nicely done.

I don't do donuts very often unless it's in snow. I tend to move straight ahead when testing tires.

Did you know you can drift a 3rd Gen MegaCab with the right amount of throttle and some opposite lock on a wet street? Now that freaked out the folks approaching me from the other lane... LOLOLOL
