Well do I get "props" for it actually being in a movie as a prop!! sorry for the cra*%y pic but had to snap a pic from off youtube with my phone....didn't know how to capture a still frame....anyway if you look to the far right you will hopefully recognize MY truck, in the background....got paid...
Crushing cars.
New paint job.
Doing events for Veterans. My grand daughter getting to hear stories from a ww2 Veteran that asked if he could sit in our shade....."WELL YES SIR, WE WOULD BE HONORED" was our response.
I have had this truck for a long time and it has gone through a lot of...
Pushing snow with it.
The best reason to put a pintle on the front, so you can recover MORE green addiction!!
Even earning its keep around the house hauling dirt!

I can check to see if I have any detailed pics to show you, otherwise I can pretty much walk you through what I did.
