    I like that it is not mint. I am a carpenter and would be always afraid to ding up a new truck . Which I will never have anyway . Looks great !

      I have a 2019 Tacoma that gets used to pull out small trees, tow small trailers and it's always getting little scratches and stuff on the farm

      You're irrelevant. You'll never have this truck, and likely nothing approaching it. Stop pretending importance and inserting yourself.

    It might be .01 of a percent less cool with a few dents and scratches but it also adds caricature so it's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen 😂

    I think it’s perfect. I’m starting up my LLC to be a mobile auto and equipment mechanic. I’d be so proud to own a rig like this and it’d definitely be the coolest service truck in the state. Going to purchase a few things and throw my hat in the ring on this one.

    @chadcooper5181 Месяц назад +3

    I love the Sqbdy trucks great job on the interior and the equipment solid truck- however Ive painted several trucks with industrial paint mostly outside for work or flips. If ya’ll scuff it down hit it with heavy primer coat and do a single sanding and wipe down you will loose all those obvious layers of paint you sanded and painted over under that paint. Love the truck but i think a bed-liner coat would fix it up. Dents ain’t bad but layers of paint you can see ain’t good. White or tan hides lots of body issues grey and dark colors show them off. Ill tix it when you give it to me. Lol beautiful beast guys hate to beat you up over the paint but wow.

    • @hodsonmotors
      @hodsonmotors  Месяц назад +1

      Oh yeah the paint is awful. We didn't paint it. Previous owner did. Would've been better with a roller! lol. Only things we painted were the dash, and the visor.

    I like your trucks a lot. This one reminds me of a first gen Cummins dually utility you did once and as with that one I feel like work trucks (targeted as such) shouldn't be as lifted or outfitted with huge tires. It's inconvenient getting things, and yourself, in and out of tall beds. My favorite giveaway that you've done has to be that patina'd Bullnose Cummins. Always look forward to what is next from HM.
