Nickname is Donk and those of you old enough to remember the Crocodile Dundee movies you might remember “I don’t need a gun I got a Donk”. The rest as they say is history. Also answer to Scott.

I’m a Metallurgical / Heat Treat Engineer at LARGE Mining and construction equipment company based out of Peoria Illinois, which is also were I currently reside. For those of you that don’t know what a Met Eng is, I get paid to play with steel and fire. “It doesn’t work if its not Hard”

Spent too much of my life in this God forsaken, corrupt state so I like to escape up to Northern Wisconsin or the UP as often as I can, all my toys are much more fun to use up there. Spend most of my time in Eagle River, WI and Houghton MI. Which reminds me, I haven’t ogled Ms. MI Raptors Bikini pic in a while.
There were defiantly not any women that good looking in the UP the 7 years I spent at Michigan Tech. I looked

As far as toys go I fit right in around here: Honda Valkyrie, Polaris Switchback, four-wheeler, Guns, Guns and more Guns.
O yea and a Raptor that should be here in a week.

2012 Tux Black Screw RAPTOR
- Luxury Package
- Power Moonroof
- Sony Navigation
- Pickup Bed Extender
- Tailgate Step
- Front & Rear Camera System
O’ and don’t forget the front license plate bracket

Also have a collection of goodies in the garage awaiting arrival
- RetraxONE bed cover
- AEI CAI
- Recon Head lights, Tail lights & 3rd brake light.
(already got one head light bucket apart for a projector mod, Thanks Ducati)
- Superchip tuner
and appointments for
- Line-X XTRA in the bed and wheel wells
- Driver and Passenger window tint

Then there’s my To Do list
- SDHQ original front pre-runner bumper with lights
(love the look and function just a long ass drive)
- ADD Stealth rear bumper with lights
- SW full dual exhaust
- RPG stage 3 rear suspension upgrade
- Front upper control arms
- King shocks at all four corners
- Livernois 6.6L stroker motor with all the rest of their goodies
- Whipple supercharger on top
Cause I didn’t buy this Truck for the mileage

And a bunch of other crap I’m sure I’ll find on FRF that I just HAVE to have.

You all are EVIL!!!
Thanks for all the great information on the RAPTOR and mods.

Crap... is "old enough to remember Crocodile Dundee" a measurement of old age now?
Damnit.

Oh, and welcome.
