How loud's that siren?

I just read this entire thread, that's one gnarly truck you have.

I'd love to build a PreRunner but i think i would be a huge waste living in Massachusetts there's not a ton of sand here, or any place to jump it.

Pretty loud lol.. Here's a vid of it on while spinning donuts.

Every time I read your build thread, I get new ideas on how to drain my bank account.

 

[RaceRanger97]

Lol I have the same problem.

Operation Huckfest prep is in full effect!
Redid my exhaust today eliminating the cats, sounds soo much better. Also picked up a bunch of tubing to brace some much needed places.

Just read all 90 sum pages... By far THE best Ranger Prerunner I have EVER seen. What do you have into that by now? Gotta be at least 45k. Kudos my good sir. Albeit a bit late subscribed. Now excuse me while I change my pants.

Well, after I finish school in december I may start the process of linking the truck. Besides that, only big plans are to finish the interior. Getting tired of looking at an empty cab lol

Thanks man glad you like it, there are way better prerunners out there but I definitely have fun with this thing. Its hard to tell how much has gone into this truck. For one, I have broken and replaced or just upgraded so many things, couldn't tell you how much I have actually spent. Also, I have recieved Great amounts of help from Fearless Gear and Burnett's Motorsparts on a lot of parts and labor which can be tough to put into an exact value. I do have a file that I keep track of major expenditures and its more than I ever expected to spend on a mini truck project lol
