BLACK TRUCK THREAD ONLY!!!!!!!

Iceman...I'm bettin' you bought that truck in Blountville. I was at the Mexican restaurant across the street from the car lot it was at, and went by to look at it. I've got an '05 RC that is black. There are several other guys in the area with trucks like ours. I need to post pics of all of my black toys on this thread.
 
no i got it in bristol, but i heard they got it from "Texas" but somene i know told me the same thing about blountville. so i'm not sure. but i do know where it is now.
 
I guess where it is now is all that matters. Enjoy the truck...I love the hell out of mine. We should have a gtg sometime soon. I work with two guys that have 'em...one has an '05 black QC, and the other has an '04 red RC. From what I hear about TNVIPER's truck, I would stay out of Kingsport, until I did some pretty big performance mods...I know I'm going to.
 
TNVIPER and myself are planning on a GTG at Street Fights on the Th. you and your Friends should defiantly show up.

carl man do you have the Billy's on yet, I have got to hear that sound
Yup Big Worm, they've been on for ages now. Can't start the truck though, the dash is out and there is wiring for Africa lol. As soon as I can I'll get a video from behind the truck of the exhaust. From what I have heard it's exactly like the one in the Billy Boat video on their site, just perhaps a little deeper? Definitely quieter than I thought for a catless system, that is a huge bonus for me. You can hear it, don't get me wrong, it's just a nice loud at idle and mid range. Step on it and all hell breaks loose lol, that's how I like my exhaust to be, only loud at WOT.

hey i take offence to that ricer statement:mad: i'm a ricer at heart. *building a 600+ whp civic right now:burnout: *
 
no offense intended. just not my cup of tea. an old roomate of mine had a 550hp turbo integra that would eat my old 406 roller motor 68 camaro. when done right they are amazing to watch. high horse 4 cylinders are cool. i was refering to all the stock motored cars with fart can exhausts running 16-18 sec 1/4 mile times. you guys headed to the track tonight? looks like rain.
 
no i'm not going tonight, i'm sitting here in Abingdon watching tv/ reading this forum.
 
sorry bout hoing this thread, but trav one of our frequent fliers is in the waiting room as i type this. you saw her 2-3 days ago for dental pain
guess you didnt make your point
