This is the Elite registry for The General Steve Jr.
The General Steve Jr. is the illegitimate son (we've all been there, right? - haha j/k) of my first truck, you guessed it, The General Steve.
The General Steve was a 1980 Toyota 4x4 'Truck' (the actual model name) that, just like his uncle the general lee, adorned the flag on the roof as well as a number ("02" respectively). I can't seem to find any pictures of General Steve except for the ones from the day I bought him. Here they are:
Don't let these pics fool you, this guy sat about 5 or 6 more inches off the ground when i first got it, than my explorer does now.
General Steve Jr. also wears the "mark" of his people, but on the front bumper instead of the roof.

I'm embarrassed to say a week and a half ago, (feb 7, 08) with my half bald street tires, I got stuck...in a field...in grass. In my defense, it was after a really bad storm and the ground felt more like a swamp. Here are pics...
We brought out a ford diesel tractor to pull me out and it actually got stuck at one point, also. I've got a video of it I need to put up when i quit being lazy.
So, I'm only a few odds and ends from starting the lift, but currently out of $$$. so it's looking like a month or two at most before i do it all. I might go ahead and put a body lift on at the same time.
