Nice looking build so far pj. Your truck has come a long way and it looks boss now lol. I have a question though. How did you come up with your trucks name? What's the story behind the name james for your truck?

I own a 2000 gmc jimmy.................. hence james

.
 

Ok, I wasn't sure if there was a funny story behind the name or something you picked out at random or a friends name. But that clears that up lol.

Yeep thats how he got his name.

looking good...how is that harbor freight winch treating you?
i have been looking at those every time i drop in there....

Good, I hooked up the controller yesterday to make sure it works ( havent used it since labor day) and it works just fine. Its saved my ass few times so its worth the money.
