all you have to vote off of is a couple pictures really, so the votes are gonna go to the guy with the grand who wheels it the hardest/ or has the best wheeling pictures. i think only 3 grands of the ones nominated deserve to be here this month.

I try to vote for someone i have talked more with and have learned more from, rather than the cooler picture.. some of us aren't loaded and have made big sacrifices for our rigs.. And those users on here that aren't on the forums enough to know these people, don't know their individual sacrifices for the good of their rig and the forum.. i would rather vote for a kid who is always on here helping out, and takes good care of his rig, but has only been able to afford a BB and 31's then vote for a guy who just shows up one day with a built rig and never is on here to help anyone..

i just feel there is more to it then looking at pictures... that's why we list their build threads as well.. read up!




oh BTW...

Looks like a ZJ might finally joining the ROTM RANKS!!!! Welcome to who ever comes! We will gladly accept any of you! lol
