I like to think of it more as a hobby that pays me a little money every now and then rather than a job.

Sounds like a winning job to me. If you consider your job a hobby, and you're happy doing it, then I'd think a lot of people would be envious of the position you're in.

Sono***un...You are right. I am very lucky to be able to do something I love. The rewards far outway the money and hours.

T...Almost too many brands to mention. I'll put up a link of the main distributors I use. That will be easier.

http://wheelpros.com/
http://americantiredistributors.com/
http://www.mhtwheels.com/

Wheel Pros probably gets more orders from us than the other places. I think it's just due to the brands of wheels they carry.

Dono....That is made by a company called Tough Country. Out of Texas just like every other company that makes that style of grill guard. The name Ranch Hand is somewhat of a curse word in my neck of the woods. They had some serious quality issues they wouldn't stand behind a few years back and now none of the area distributors will touch them with a ten foot pole. Here's a link to their site. http://www.toughcountry.com/

The one in the pick is about a $900-$1,000 unit depending on the dealer.(price doesn't include the winch) You can get cheaper, and you can get more expensive units from them depending on the options you choose to have on it. I've ordered some that are in the $1,500 range on more than one occasion.

You might just give them a call at the factory and see who sells them in your area. They will sell direct to you from the factory but shipping will hurt REAL bad.

Buck

yss...I don't know if I have any pics of a Denali or not. We have done several, but can't remember taking any pics of one. The pics I take are usually random on my part. We do so many rigs I sometimes don't get pictures of everything.

We did some 22s on an Escalade last week. I'm not even sure I got pics of it.

Most of the Denalis we do are just the normal stuff anyway. DVD systems, wheels, tinted windows, and that's about it. They already have everything else on them.

I do have a few more truck pics I will be posted within the next weeks or so when I get some jobs done.

Buck

Why yes there are my yankee friend.

Keep in mind where I am at. We do A LOT of Duallies. But, not the kind of work you are thinking of.

If a Dually comes into my store it's usually getting one, if not all of the following things.

Husky Liners
Spray on Bedliner
Gooseneck hitch
Brake Controller
Steps of some sort
Grill Guard
If it's a Diesel, some sort of performance module or tuner.

That's about it. We don't do many Dually wheels. Most of my customers work their trucks. And when I say work, I mean WORK them. They are used a little differently than what you are thinking of.

Hey, there's a pic of a Dually in one of my last posts moron. Just one though.

Buck
