Terry Henrich of Maple Valley, Washington, calls this truck the Mule. It's an '84 Dodge D50. Terry cut 36 inches off the frame to bobtail the truck, and he handbuilt a 15-inch IFS lift kit to clear 35-inch Goodyear MT/R tires. Terry also handbuilt the front and rear bumpers, nerf bars, and ladder bars. Terry says the Mule gets him wherever he wants to go. Not bad considering how stubborn mules can be.
Wes and Nicole Stewart of Johnstown, Ohio, sent in this shot of their '01 Jeep TJ. It features a 3-inch Teraflex suspension lift with Skyjacker shocks, and 33-inch Baja Claws on 15x10 black steel wheels. This Jeep serves as Nicole's daily driver, so any 'wheeling typically has to happen on the couple's weekend camping trips.
This '98 Ford Ranger XLT belongs to Patrick Carr of San Diego, California.

For performance, Patrick added a K&N FIPK, a JET Chip, a Granatelli Motorsports MAF sensor, and a custom dual exhaust system.
Jeff Koens of Antioch, California, wheels this '83 Toyota Pickup.The drivetrain features a 22RE engine, a stock manual five-speed transmission, a 5.00:1 transfer-case gearset, and stock axles. Jeff added a custom flatbed, rock sliders, and an All Pro 6.5-inch suspension lift. A set of 35-inch Goodyear MT/R tires provides the traction. Jeff claims the custom body work was done by Hollister Hills.
