Living the Life and Printing the Passion
Hey, Street Trucks family! As we wrap up another year of killer builds, custom innovations, and wild rides, I want to personally thank every single one of you for sticking with us and keeping this truck culture alive and thriving. This year has been an absolute blast, and with 2025 right around the corner, we’re cranking things up to another level. From mind-blowing builds to tech tips and all the latest gear, we’ve got a lot in store—and it’s all because of you, our loyal readers.
Before we dive into what’s next, here’s a look at what you can see in this stacked issue. We took a deep dive into Mikey Garcia’s 1996 Chevy Tahoe build, a wild mix of Pro Touring performance and modern comfort. This Tahoe is a beast, with a GM LS3 under the hood, custom wheelwells, and a flawless Nardo Gray paintjob. Mikey’s goal? To build a race-inspired truck with all the tech and comfort of today’s rides—and he absolutely nailed it.
Next up was a slick feature on Thomas and Paige Harris’ 2023 Ram 1500 Laramie. This build is a head-turner, boasting massive custom rims, color-matched bumpers, and a killer stance. Thomas wanted something to cruise to shows and look good doing it, and this Laramie checks all the boxes.
StreetTrucks has been growing stronger each year, and we feel like we’re just getting started. With more projects, more features, and more in-depth tech, 2025 is shaping up to be a game-changer.
Raul Verdin’s 1996 two-door Chevy Tahoe took customization to a whole new level. From a fully shaved firewall to a 6.2L LT4 engine swap, this Viper Red monster is both show-ready and street-mean. Raul’s passion for fabrication shines through every inch of this $250K build, proving that with the right skills, anything is possible.
For you hands-on builders, we just dropped a tech article on installing IHC Suspension’s complete 3/5 lowering kit for the 2023 Ford F-150. This kit keeps the factory ride quality while dropping your truck low enough to turn heads. From custom control arms to rear flip kits, this setup makes getting low easier than ever.
StreetTrucks has been growing stronger each year, and we feel like we’re just getting started. With more projects, more features, and more in-depth tech, 2025 is shaping up to be a game-changer. We’re pumped to bring you more of what you love, but we also want to hear from you! Have any ideas or suggestions for content? Got a project of your own that we should know about? Shoot me an email—I’d love to hear what you’re working on.
Thanks for riding with us, and here’s to another epic year of custom truck culture!
