I would vote for Rich...
Every board needs a resident asshole.

I'm gonna have to vote Ricky Bobby & not cuz I just read what he wrote.... From what I hear & know, there are others i'm sure just as deserving. I just haven't met or wheeled with all of them yet.
Here's why he gets my vote....I met up with him at NCSU to look at some early cj leaf springs...so I walk thru the dorm to his room...walla...a WHOLE ROOM full of parts...no bed, no desk or books...parts stacked to the ceiling...I was surprised they hadn't kicked him outta there....not only that but half the trucks in the lot are sportin' BEAST inc banners that he had wrenched on and hoggin' up a couple spots each..
Since then its like everywhere I go ....who do I run into wrenchin' on Shit....Ricky Bobby...
One night I went to Southern 4x4's....who wasn't even home...I heared something out back and some dude layin on the ground with a drop light (Freezin' cold, snow on the ground)...I said Hey...who leans they're head out???...but Ricky Bobby...covered in grease...
I'm not sayin' i even like all the stuff he builds...I just like the effort he puts into it and the shit he endures doin' it...True Grit...
Speaking of effort ....I went by KC4x4's shop in Asheboro a while back....no one's seen him cuz he's holed up out there wrenchin' on his buggy..I'd say he'll be a contender for 2008.
I could probly second all the other votes on here for any of the guys I know. Truly some gifted talent out there and some of the Best Folks you'll ever meet to help you on or off the Trail!!! Here's to ya'll...
Uh, I rethought my vote. Sorry, Chip.
I vote Art Lilley.
This just goes to show who the 4x4 man of the year should be... But as stated, you wouldn't benifit from your own work. Of course you might? Never turn on a switch in a Electricians house or flush a Plumber's toilet. They never have time for their own.
I'm going to save my vote for later. I have a few deals coming to a head between now and then. So for now...
I CAN BE BOUGHT!
