Marlin's Truck: Post your pics!

[Dingman.]

Well then, that might be my next upgrade.

I can't believe that anyone would think that Marlin wouldn't be running what he makes, and the latest bestest of what he's come up with. The crawler is a rolling testament and showcase for his products.

Not to mention, that his products can be wheeled in all the bestest places without becoming "Parts Of Mass Destruction". In other words..."It can be done if you're not dumb".

Nope, it's only been from Ocotillo (San Diego), CA up to Canada over to Tennessee down to Texas and back to Cali a hand full of times.

Well , that's what YOU think they "need" . Remember , most of these trucks aren't "supposed" to be crawlers , so your comment about "showing them what a crawler really looks like" , is kind of ignorant to the fact that they're not supposed to be crawlers . They don't have very many rocks overthere , that's the look they are going for . I don't think they're clueless and in need of you to set them straight    . . . Oh , and "kno" is spelled "know" . . . Just so you kno 

[4LoRunner]

alright im sorry

[iNfErNaL]

alright im sorry

Oh no need to be , none of those rigs are mine and if they were oh well  . I was just saying that none of those Toys were built to crawl , that's all

How about some specs on Marlin's rig

[jeff22r]

It shure is pretty. I know it has done some pretty hard trails, but where are the dents? Every scar, smudge, scrape or dent on my truck has a story. Not many want to hear then but I carry em proudly.
I have a pic of my truck when it was clean shiney and dent free in my toolbox at work, and another in the garage to remind me of what it was before those proud moments. Its good to reflect sometimes.

Marlis truck will always stand out in my mind as the one, the one so many strive to be like, as status symbol if you will. 

yeah i got a caved in fender and door on my 84!!! a jeep said "you might of pulled me out but that yoder would never make it" i showed him!!!!

[BigMike]

How about some specs on Marlin's rig

MARLIN CRAWLER "THE CRAWLER BUILD"

Is there any thread of that sort? like a timeline of the build and pics along the way of transformation. from start to current?

[Rocksurfer]

Not that I've ever seen, all of that would be in his head and he'd be able to tell you every upgrade ever made to it, how well it worked and if it were still on the truck. You need to realize he bought the truck a very long time ago and it was built before there was a marlincrawler.com

[THK Matt]

Oh im sure. i think it'd be cool if BigMike cud start a "history/timeline/build thread"!!!!!!

[BigMike]

Oh im sure. i think it'd be cool if BigMike cud start a "history/timeline/build thread"!!!!!!
