October Truck Of the Month Poll

Since someone (me),,,,, has been dragging his feet on getting this month's poll posted,,,,,,, EVERYBODY that nominated their rig gets to be in it!


BRUISER -->


doznfire -->


SuperiorRam -->


robins -->


**********************************************
Truck Of the Month Procedure for 2008

The DTR TOM Staff has come up with a new procedure for choosing the TOM candidates.


* Around the 1st of the month, we will post a thread with the winner for the previous month’s poll in the General Diesel Discussion section of the forums.

* At the same time, we will post a “TOM Candidate” thread in the same forum. In this thread we will announce the category of trucks that will be accepted as possible candidates. (1st Gen 250, 350, 2nd Gen 2500, 3500, 3rd Gen 2500, 3500, MegaCab, etc.)

* If your truck falls into the chosen category for that month and you would like to have a chance to be in the poll, then you can nominate your truck by posting a picture from your gallery in that thread.
* NOTE: The picture MUST come from your Diesel Truck Resource Member Photo Gallery! (Anything else will be deleted.)

* You can also list some of the mods and accessories on your rig in the same post. Please post only once in that thread because the TOM committee will select three trucks from that thread to be in the poll. The process for selecting the three candidates from this thread will be completely at random. If your truck is not selected for the poll or it is but it doesn't win, you may nominate it again when your category comes back around.

* Previous Winners of the TOM will not be eligible to participate. (Previous Winner being defined as truck and/or DTR Member)

* The “TOM Candidate” thread will be open from around the 1st of the month until around the 14th of the month. That gives you two weeks to submit your truck.

* At this time it will be locked, the three poll candidates will be chosen at random and the poll will be posted on or around the 15th . The poll will be voted on until the end of the month and we start all over again on the 1st of the next month by posting the winner in one thread and posting the “TOM Candidate” thread for the next month's category.

          Special THANKS to Tim Barber at TRE Diesel Performance for sponsoring the TOM Award plaques!

          I'm going to have to go with BRUISER that is a true family oriented first gen although the others are very cool conversions.

          What I like about it most is the engine, tranny, etc. swap from his "old" truck (a '92) to his "new" one (the '85 pictured). He's going to use it as his tow rig to haul his trail rig and be able to bring the family along.

          Pictures of the engine in his profile.

          Take the best parts from other vehicles and make one fantastic ride!

          Sweet!
