Your right I'm a buzz kill, sorry it's just the first thing that I thought of if I would have been the lucky winner. :) look at it this way he could turn around a flip it for an easy 40k maybe 45 pay the taxes and have 22 to 27 cash to buy a cool boat :)

That's what I'd do with it.

Congrats. Totally awesome, to see an OFFer get the goods!

Thanks for all the great replies. I will definitely put up some pics once I get the truck. I am planning on keeping it because the current truck I have now is too small (reg cab need crew) for my family. Also the truck I own currently I should be able to sell for almost what I will owe in taxes. So I might have to chip in two or three thousand, where are you gonna get a 55k truck for that lol. When my wife called me to let me know initially that I won I was immediately thinking used duckworth jet boat, not that I would have a problem with hewes or north river etc. Well I'm sure you all know how that conversation ended with the wife hahaha lol. So my wife wants to keep the truck because it will be more practical and she says there is nothing wrong with the boat I have now. Thanks again I will keep everyone posted. One more thing, I am glad I won it as well as being an OFF member instead of one of the elitists from the other fishing forum winning.

Not really sure yet, but hopefully Cabelas will contact me within this upcoming week. I think the delivery date will also depend on what options I am going to order. The only option that I think may set the delivery date back is the engine because I am willing to wait a little bit(not available till early fall) to get the 6.2 liter engine (gas) 420 hp 450 ft lb torque. I am glad I have a company vehicle to get to and from work otherwise that is not the engine I would be selecting.

I went down to cabelas on sunday for the interview which I thought went pretty good. I had no idea they were gonna give me 300 dollars to spend a fifty dollar gift card to buffalo wild wings and some free shirts and hats. The truck on the news is not my truck that is just one they had guaranty chevrolet bring in for show. I havent even ordered mine yet but hopefully I will have it ordered by the end of the week. I will take pictures when I take delivery on it. I still can't believe I won. I'll keep everyone up to date.
