Robert said he asked the builder about where he got the acorn nuts on the wheels and he said he turned them all!!! The model was definitely a popular topic of conversation!
Stepside covered that - it was AMAZING.

I also notice a couple shots where my ugly mug is showing. Good thing - now if the wife tries to say I was stepping out I can prove all I was doing was spending money. It has occurred to me, though, that I did not drive a truck while I was there. That was one of my goals for the trip, and the reason I purchased the pit pass. However, I was having so much fun talking trucks and taking pictures and movies that I plum forgot!
