After gracing the covers of several magazines with his last vehicle ( a bagged '95 Civic), Steve Miller of Yorba Linda, California decided to try something different this time around. He bought a 2000 Full Size Chevy Truck. 

The first time I saw this truck was at the local cruise spot on a  Sunday night where everyone goes after their club meetings. I thought to myself "is that thing real". Steve was showing everyone the Hydraulics and as I pulled up he had the front end hopping in the air. 

This was the first complete show truck I had seen in the 2000 Chevy model. It was hard to believe that a truck that size was leaving the ground so easily and not falling apart! Upon further examination, I saw that the truck was fully painted with wild graphics and body dropped. I knew that this was the type of truck I wanted for my first feature.

Steve's suspension and 3" body drop are the work of Master Image Customs ( known worldwide for their amazing trucks). The truck also features shaved door handles, gas door, taillights, roll pan, and painted interior by Anaheim Prestige Auto Body. To fill up the fender wells, Intro wheels created the Champion wheel in a 20 x 8 and they were wrapped in 255/35/ZR20 rubber made by Falken tires. Stereo mods by Advantage Audio include: a Pioneer head unit with flip up TV screen, three 4-channel amps, 4 subwoofers in a dual chamber  enclosure behind the seats and into the bed, and a Jensen VCR. Graphics were sprayed by Steve Vandemon using a long list of colors. His truck also has many accessories from APC including: a phantom grille insert, smooth cowl panel and new mirrors.

A few days before I shot this feature, I purchased a digital camera so that this website will be better than ever when it comes to picture quality. I'm glad I was able to feature this truck with the new camera because the pictures can now speak for themselves.
