Pics of my truck

It had been raining here for over a week and today we finally had a nice day so I got some photos of my girl. I name all my trucks and I named this truck Mistress. Originally, she was going to be my off roader and my "other truck" as I was driving an F-150 at the time. I'm planning on putting on a later ('92-'93) grille surround and inserts and front bumper with step pad. I added the steps and decals today. I decided on the Skyjacker 4" lift today since I did some measuring and can still haul a gooseneck with that lift. I'm also going for Raceline Renegade 8 wheels and Cooper STT tires. I sure appreciate all the great info and responses I've gotten so far!

More Mistress Photos

I need to do an inform poll too. I'm planning on painting the truck myself in the not so far future. I want to stick with two tone. I want the center to be a very dark gray and originally I was going with a nice red (not too bright but not quite burgundy either) on top and bottom. But, I really like burnt orange/red (GM used to have it and so did Ford). Which do you guys think for the top/bottom color choice: red or burnt red/orange?
