4x4 Mecca Members.

We have a new Tech Master recognition award for people who make a consistent effort to share their tech knowledge and advice. If you go out of your way to make the 4x4 Mecca Tech Section a better place for all of us you will be recognized and awarded for your effort. This award includes a special Tech Master title beneath your user name, and a free 1 year membership or a year extension if you are already a paying member. The award will be given at random but specifically to the gear heads who take pride in sharing their knowledge, and teaching those without their personal level of mechanical ability.

Please take a minute to congratulate our first 4x4 Mecca Tech Master bggrnchvy. :sweet:

Nice! I love primered trucks. Looks agressive like that... almost like the back alley thug.
