Now there's an issue they'll need to print more of...

**jamie72** · 06-05-2012, 09:33 PM

they would need a whole magazine to do this truck right, not just an article. hope to see yours in print Drew its well deserved!

drewskiren · 06-05-2012, 10:23 PM

The girls were in charge of the camera today, here's a few pics.

I'm holding the Coke.

ABSOLUTELY!!! I'm no dummy.

Lots of guys walked up pointing or smiling with the "what the....." written all over their face.

Drew,your truck is more incredible in person.Drew is a great guy,he took about 10 mins to chat with me about his truck.There was always camera's going off and people pointing the whole time we were talking.We talked about my burb project and some of the neat cars there.Good luck on the rest of your power tour journey.

**thelonerife** · 06-05-2012, 11:28 PM

I remember when I came and picked up the burb chassis that Drew showed me the truck that he was going to use for the conversion. He told me he was going to use the quad and all I said was wow. I was thinking this is going to be interesting. Knowing that the quad was a little wider in the rear. Drew I'm glad to see that you pulled it off. Great job!!

I hardly got to walk around - too busy fielding questions. The good news is a Hot Rod photographer already found us. He said he would talk to his editor. We'll see.

You will get some press coverage on your truck mark it down. Looking forward to seeing it in Hot Rod mag. and it seems like they have a full show covering the tour on speed channel.

Wow, that was a while back. You are on page one of this build. I forgot that I had told you the Quadrasteer plans way back then. It's been a fun journey.

72blueshark · 06-06-2012, 02:34 AM

good luck on the drive

**lolife99** · 06-06-2012, 07:42 AM

Have a great time on the PowerTour!

SCOTI · 06-08-2012, 08:50 PM

Guys, I checked this thing out today @ the Power Tour Finale' @ Lone Star Park, Grand Prairie TX..... UNREAL!

Absolutely gorgeous truck. The details are hard to keep up w/& he's a great guy to boot in person. Outstanding job my internet friend!! Hopefully we can work through the air-ride bugs & make things 100% perfect.

Have a safe trip home w/your kids.

I agree 100% with you Scoti. Drew is real down to earth humble guy. I met him and checked out his truck for about a half hour yesterday. The pictures really don't do justice to how nice his truck is.

Enjoy your weekend Drew and safe journey home!

I think we BS'd 30-45mins. Just as nice in person as he is here on the board.

drewskiren · 06-08-2012, 09:29 PM

Thanks guys for finding me and giving me a hearty handshake.

A few pics from one and two days ago.

I could have taken a hundred of the guys on all fours!!!

jeffg1010 · 06-08-2012, 09:47 PM

So... do you wanna cruise it up to Pigeon Forge NEXT weekend and meet me and gcburdic at the LMC Truck All Chevy Supernationals?

We are bringing our trucks up there.

drewskiren · 06-08-2012, 09:47 PM

We ate at Eskimo Joe's in Stillwater.

SCOTI · 06-08-2012, 09:52 PM

It's great that the family was very involved today as well. Tell those young ladys they did a great job!!

drewskiren · 06-08-2012, 09:55 PM

Will do. They impressed me so much I decided not to go straight home and instead take a big detour to Schlitterbahn water park tomorrow as a reward.

Ahh yes! They should love that. We used to camp-out & float the river every year & then hit Schlitterbahn before heading back to Big-D. Good times....

drewskiren · 06-08-2012, 10:05 PM

Today on the way and in Dallas.

One of my standard opening lines became " Yeah, the darned axle cracked right when I pulled up."

*R.A.D* · 06-08-2012, 10:28 PM

i like that very cool

drewskiren · 06-08-2012, 10:37 PM

Just a quick review of where we have been!
