What should I do?

I'm trying to decide on what to do for the 2009 season...whatever I build needs to be done before SBN

I can

A)

Build my Expedition....paint, wheels, walled behind the rear seat with 12 12s and 6 amps...do up the interior and make a show car out of it

But its my daily and I'm not sure if I'll like having it totally built up

or

B)

Leave my Expedition as a daily driver and build another 159.9 bass racer Silverado show truck

I don't have another silverado yet and would have to buy a snugtop as well as a decent truck...so I'm looking at 3500 bucks right there plus having to tow it to SBN.

I'm leaning toward option A and using my expedition all season and just building another silverado during the summer and take it to finals.

But then again IASCA finals is at SBN....I hate making these decisions //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

 
wow good one //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

I know right?

You should take your expedition on the highway and crash it head on @ 100mph into a concrete barrier..

And dont forget to place a webcam type setup in the vicinity so we can all see.

 
The thing I really like about B is it lets me keep my Exp. as a daily and still get 17mpg.

I know as soon as I put 26s on it my gas mileage is gonna drop big time

One thing I really DON'T like about B is I have to have a trailer it to long shows because I'm not going to drive a 2k dollar truck 12 hours without putting a new motor and ***** in it

But then again since its IDBL finals I kind of want to build the silverado to win bass boxing

 
plus driving a true show vehicle everyday is just another thing to worry about.
Thats the other thing

I think buying another truck is the way to go.

Because even if I build the Exp I'd have to eventually buy another car to use as a daily and I'd end up spending a lot more then what a truck would cost me now

What if you do everything EXCEPT the giant *** rims? Go ahead and buy the rims if you want...but save putting them on till the week or so before the show. You can do up everything else.

 
That could work too

I'll just have to sleep on it and figure out what the plan is

I only have 6 months to totally get it finished //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif
