Default Minnesota Farm truck to Arizona Bomber

I bought a beat up, dirty, multicolored farm truck in January. I took the entire interior apart and cleaned everything as well as put in new speakers. I bought it with mismatched wheels and tires, since then it has had a set of American racing wheels and now a set of newer ranger wheels with bfg a/t ko's. I put a 2" body lift on it that I found on Craig's list, as well as built a tube bumper and skidplate (the skidplate is more to cover the steering linkage than bashing rocks). Then I sanded the truck down with 80 grit sandpaper and, with a high density foam roller, rolled on Behr interior/exterior enamel primer and paint. Last but not least I chopped the top off using a ratical kit off eBay (the kits a joke btw). To top it off a buddy and I drove it from Minneapolis to Sedona Arizona. Driving I-70 topless was incredible, and the 2wd four banger was impressive in Moab where it completed the fins and things trail with no issue (the trail isn't too hard, but was fun). Now the truck resides in Sedona where I'm living but is up for sale so I can move up to a 4wd. Here's some pics:
