    What do you guys think about doing an annual first gen awards thing? I don't know what sort of prizes could be conjured up, but would be pretty fun if anything.

    I'm thinking we could come up with a few categories, take nominees for the categories, then drop polls in December to let the votes decide. Winners announced in January.

    For example

    "Feather Duster Award"- cleanest engine bay
    "I Ain't Dead" - resurrected truck
    "Darkness Approved" - best use of bed liner
    "I'll Be Gone" - most off road trips taken
    "Best of Best Gen" - best looking truck overall
    "Most Helpful Member" - explains itself
    "Recall Denied" - most rust
    "Master Mangler" - broke something the worst way
    "High Roller" - tallest truck
    "Heavyweight champ" - biggest tow
    "Let's go places" - highest mileage

    Any categories or ideas are welcome

    I like it. A Jeep forum I belong to has a "Cherokee Of The Month" category and it's fun. It does create a lot of extra work for the mods though. Your idea may not though. I say let's give it a whirl.

    We had a ride of the month on an older forum and it was a bit of extra work, but all we really need is to organize nominations, pictures, and voting.

    You're definitely "up there" but I believe @Glock 40 probably has a lock on that category.
