    Alright gentlemen, I felt that I needed to finish the duty of starting the HOTM. since I have limited access via iPod touch, I'll need your help of posting each truck's photo's and specifications, I'll try to do as much as I can.
    Current runner ups are:
    a. Yota4life
    b. Jetas
    c. Litneon
    d. NotAvailable

    as you may notice, these trucks are the 89-95 selection in the previous thread found here. http://www.toyotaminis.com/forum/showthread.php?t=5954
    My reasoning is that this will keep the competition evenly spaced together.

    Next months HOTM will have the other trucks, so don't freak out.

    Please post up pictures and specifications to keep it clean. Post build thread links if neccessary.

    I love the bare metal hood. Someday I want to figure out how to leave my daily driver completely naked. Always like it when I see the unfinished trucks at the shows like that.

    you're a dumbass. i like the low look, not the term lowrider though because im a white guy, and i tend to refer to lowriders as impalas etc. with hydros...
    i prefer the term minitruck.
