Reviving and old tradition.
We skipped a month everyone, lets get back on the ball :tongueout:

For the rules, read http://www.ultimateyota.com/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=26&topic=713.new (http://"here")

If you have an interest in being next month's feaured member, post up (1) pic of your truck and a brief blurb on your truck specs. This thread will be open for 2 weeks. After this thread is closed, there will be a poll started listing the members who have expressed interest in being the featured member. This will run for a little under the last two weeks of the month for our members to vote. The last couple days will consist of announcing the winner and gathering their info.

Post up - and good luck!!

Yeah, I'm voting for the yellow truck, with the van as a close second.

[YotaFun]

Just to Let everyone know submission will be closed at midnight on the 25th Before I leave NE Takover, That way we can have a good week long voting session :D

[2ndGen]

vannnnnnn!! okay, i mean the van.

[YotaFun]

We have a lot of submission!

Keep them coming Gents.

If I can get a hold of some staff I might ask them to make an exception to have two winners for this submission since we missed the Submission and voting for July so...

[slosurfer]

I vote one winner only, that way next month will have a bunch of submissions as well.

Avy, thanks for getting this rolling again. :thumbup:

[Cebby]

One winner is good - there's no shortage of time...

A big thanks to Avy for picking up the slack! You bucking for a staff position? :)

[YotaFun]

We shall stick with one then :D

Not a problem, I lurk around here enough and like Lance, Have a blackberry to keep on the up and up :tongueout:

As for bucking for a staff position, I don't think I am worthy of such a prestigious position :)

[YotaFun]

Bump!
Come one guys, I want to see some 4th Gens in here too!
I know your out there!

[Good Times]

4th gens? what's that? you don't want to see my busted 4th gen :D

[YotaFun]

No, I want to see a working functioning and in action 4th gen, pref not green :flipoff:

Just kidding, well its always been a 3rd or 2nd or 1st gen lol.

Though the party has already started with 'The Bee' so I don't know, I was gonna go for the van, I want to see flex shot of that thing!

[X-Tool Pimp]

I must agree with the party and vote for the "Bee" :tongueout: :laugh:

Ill post up the Landcruiser next time :thumbup:

The specs are all listed in my signature's link to my Garage post.

[YotaFun]

BUMP!
One more day!
I am happy to inform you all that the submission will close at midnight tomorrow.
I found out the campsite I am staying at has wifi....? :shake:
What has the world come too.....

Anyway lets see them!

[4runnerchevy]

Its a tough call between the Van and Bee. I would normally go with the Rock Crawler, but they are dime a dozen. :flipoff: I have to go with Avy on the wanting to see a flex shot of the van.

[04 Rocko Taco]

midnight tonite! lets get a couple more in here, and have a truly big vote off. THanks again for covering my arse Avy.

[slosurfer]

I would hate to show people up by posting Vanna's mad flex. :flipoff:

[04 Rocko Taco]

Your scared Chris, you won't do it! lol. If you post a flex shot of the van, even if it doesnt flex at all, I bet it wins hands down. lol.

[slosurfer]

Don't get jealous! :laugh: Actually, it did better than I thought it would. I'm sure I could improve it with some rear discos, longer coils, and shocks. Front swaybar was removed pretty much the day I got it home.

:4x:
