**OFFICIAL** March 2012 T4ROTM Poll

[TRDCal]

Hi Everyone,

Sorry for the late start (my fault), but as my grandpa use to say "Better late than never". Well after a nail biting D) 2 months of narrowing down the nominations we finally got it down to the top 5:

ChildernOfBodom
Dirtco
Crozhawk
Magert54
Gaterose

Happy St. Patricks day and happy voting!

EDIT: I'm not sure what happened to the title, I posted it in upper case to grab attention and for some reason its all in lower case, maybe a moderator can fix that cuz its looks pretty weak considering its the official thread.

Also...I'm still looking for a mod/admin to step up to the plate to update the T4ROTM list and make an official thread or whatever the procedure is once we have the winner.

AND

Could some senior members speak up and let me know how we start the nomination process for next month. Do I start another nomination thread and take the first 5 nominated or what...cuz we don't have to months do decide this time and I'm just wonder how y'all use to do it way back when.

Thanks

[JohnsD90]

Besides the fact the he's the only one with 3 pedals, COB won my vote by a mile.

I just thought I'd point this out (See RED text)... this quote is from the "Gallery" Forum... 4Runners of the Month thread:

What would an automotive fan site be without an "...of the Month" feature? In order to be eligible for this prestigious award all you need to do is post some pics in a gallery thread. Hint: The judges like to see pics of the 4Runner out in the elements

..........

I think Crozhawk's 4Runner is RIDICULOUS!!!! But, as I posted above, his rig has already won T4ROTM.

I love Dirtco's rig, and his build is a gold mine of great info and ideas.

The other two trucks are nice....

But.. I've got to go with COB this time around. He's put time, money, blood, sweat, and tears into that rig. His build has helped a ton of people, and I think both builder and rig deserve the props!

No first gen?
bummer.

93toy got nominated but unfortunately he didn't receive enough votes to make it this round. But not to worry, theres always next month!!

who is "we"?

Me and my imaginary friend...who do you think??

evidently I don't know, or else I wouldn't have asked you ****

 

[Bad_Vision]

is this just a version of whose penis is bigger?lol

I dont understand, do they win something or get anything from doing this? or is this just for fun. If its for fun then i know why it isn't official.
I would donate some gear for the next drawing but all the stuff i make is for 1st gens. so if you get a 1st gen winner let me know.

 

[4-Ripcord]

Its just for bragging rights. Which COB deserves.


But seriously, good luck getting a Mod to work on this.. If you havnt noticed, they have been a bit busy lately.

 

[Bad_Vision]

bragging for what?
the contest should have defined terms that way it will last longer
who has the cleanest
who has the most trail ready
who has the most stock vehicle with a bumper and some big tires
who has the most lights
who can get as much mud on there truck
best break down pic
best swapped engine
best paint job

i look at these trucks and they are all in separate classes,Crozhawk has a SAS swap and hydro steering and the others just have bumpers and big tires. if you want us to be more active in your official vote then have the owners do a picture and write up of what they have in there rig, or have a link to their build thread that shows everything they did with pictures. most of us have a full library of pictures of what we have done so it should be easy to do.
like i said this is just my opinion.

 

[4-Ripcord]

You're over thinking this.

 

[Bad_Vision]

ok well in that case my vote stands for any actually modified 4runner but that's my taste

Yeah a base model 2wd automatic 4cyl NA running on stock 15's, to 4wd supercharged 5 speed manual, on 17" rims 33 inch tires, and the SR5 seat swap, roof rack, CBI bumper, the transmission from a toyota that doesn't even bolt up to his motor, nahhhhhhhhhh that aint modifying.

 

[gaterose]

Wow you guys are really being overly critical of this.... A lot of sites do this and it's just for fun. It may seem that I'm saying this because I'm nominated, but the 4rotm thing ended right after I joined and I always thought it was cool then the mods got lazy about picking a winner. This way seems to be member operated and I don't see why it would be a bad thing.

I do agree we need links to builds for this to work well though, because it looks like none of the 4th gen'ers know anything about 3rd gen'ers rides/members and visa versa. I personally have read both 3rd gen builds before but couldn't remember who was who, while I know both other 4th gen contestants as well as a large amount about their builds.

crozhawk (Crozhawk isn't very active here anymore and as such hasn't updated his build in a while, notice it still has "July 2007 t4rotm" attached)
There's a more up-to-date version here but not on t4r
crozhawk SAC

 

[TRDCal]
