What brand of tires are those? They look pretty aggressive;
This is the roughest truck I've ever seen anywhere, and I like it.

Got some decent snow here over the past 2 days. I think they estimated about 18 inches, but its hard to tell with my yard because I have bare spots, but also tall drifts. The plow truck did great, powered right through everything with no trouble. It is fairly light, but still, not even close to getting stuck at all. Going to have to make some repairs to the plow over the summer, but no complaints about the truck. I'm thinking if I can get one of the days off, i'm going to bring it to a local mud event at Kirbys Kompound and see how it does.

I have barely driven this thing at all in the past couple months. Maybe started it up once every two weeks to make sure the battery wasn't drained. I took the plow off last week figuring that I shouldn't need it again this season. Still starts up fairly easily and nothing has really changed. I used it to move some scrap metal from next to my barn to my other truck since I had already hooked up the trailer. Funny thing though, a few seconds after I had got it running, a mouse ran up the passenger side door panel and into the broken off interior handle and out the bottom where it's rusted. I didn't see any nests anywhere, but there's probably one in there somewhere :D I plan on taking this to a local mudding event at least once this summer, other than that probably will barely get driven.

Getting to a point where i'm going to try and find a parking spot for this thing so I don't have to move it to mow, but on the other hand it makes it so that I do have to move it every once and a while to keep everything moving and free. As long as the battery is charged, it will fire right up with no issues. There really isn't much I need to use it for till winter.

Spent a bunch of time prepping and painting.... wait, I mean, I blasted over this thing with 12 cans of undercoat in about 20 minutes :D Just so I can tell it apart from my other truck because it looks so spotless now, I made the grille red.

Pretty sure I chuckled through this whole thread... I have to ask... did the rims and tires cost more than the truck?
