Default My new whip! Soon to get "Presidential" TOUCH!

Well, I have been talking about it for a few weeks now and it finally happened. I traded in the s2k and got a truck. It was a move I had to make financially to move forward and its going to help me grow my detailing business further also!

Heres a few pics for now, dont mind how dirty it is I just got done driving it nearly 350miles in the rain since I bought it. Still gotta give it my special touches..

ur crazy man!
good business move.
bad s2ki move

so with the extra cash u got back from trading it in, u gunna buy some more supplies/get a website up/etc?

also - b4 u REALLY clean her up good, u should only do half. that way ur truck will be a prime example of what paint correction can do for future customers. only do half the car, or do half of each panel

glad to see u really stepping it up. u haven't been posting much here like u have in the past (i'm guessin u hav to spend a lot of time of many different blogs now) so i hope things are well for u.
keep us updated!

P.S. i know you're in the tampa area, so just wondering how much u really know about Debra LaFave

Haha! Actually I got $0 back because I had negative equity but this has freed up nearly $600 month for me so yes a website and lots of advertising, etc. is definitely in the future!

I would do half and half, but im too picky I cant leave my car like that! haha! I havent been posting as much because I have been super busy the last couple weeks. i will have about 3 details in the next week to post up though!

Good choice! Now is a good time to pick up a used truck. Is that the I4 or V6?

Bummer!!! Sucks you can't have both. Good luck with the business, once you are prospering you can buy another one.
