wow what a cool truck, i love that color. primer or not i'd leave it. since you have all thos gb's on the xbox does it hold your music too like a ipod? i never had a xbox but it seems like it could. so how do i get a modded xbox now-a-days? we still play mario bros at my house so that should tell you i dont mind older games.

 

ya it does holds music....i play mike tysons punch out all the time..lol that came is like 25 years old and he still knocks the shit out of me.....most the times you can get on craigslist go to xbox and someone on there mods...and ya the truck is staying the color it is...i got a few more body mods and then well see what happens....

I agree with everyone one else that said that the light blue looks good like it is. A satin baby blue or something similar would look awesome.

 

Curious to see what you do, you have a great base to work with whatever you do.

 

thanks for comments.....it only took 3 trucks to get this one so far

that is what i did. i found one for $200 with 400gb memory, 160 xbox games and 10000 game emulator. good deal? of yeah 4 wireless controllers, and remote. he said obo so like $150/175 if i want to haggle. seems like a good deal, and i can rip netflix movies into it and not have to watch right away. i am glad i read your thread! may lead to tons of future entertainment.
