No cause I have no idea what I'm gonna call it. I just went with classified cause I had a little bit of military going on.

Thanks man, glad I at least got to come by and meet some of yall but I couldn't miss that wedding. The only thing that could cause an issue would be a drill weekend but nXm is definitely worth having to make up a few drill days.

Thanks man. I'm loving the hefty and with the design I used I have a seat if I have to be crammed into the engine bay.

Rig looks good! Love the rack up top and your radio! I would love to do a Riehle mod one day, however I think I'm leaving the back corner pieces off. I like your sonic cup measuring device...precise function and awesome tasting!

It has come in handy on days I'm messing around with X, keeps it so I don't lose my drink. It's a little radio but it does a really good job for its size, works alot better now that I've got the Firestik antenna. I couldn't find my measuring tape that day so I said screw it everybody knows which Sonic cup that is lol.

I have I had ordered everything while I was deployed and started putting it on once I got back. Took a long while to get the Xosel in and now I'm just doing little things here and there. I'm waiting on warmer weather to pull the headliner and wire the roof lights.
