    My profile picture is a God who I aspire to be like but won't ever come close.

    I have had the (basically) the same profile avatar for two years now. It has gone through a few aesthetic changes, but the base icon has remained the same. This is the standard Beamng forums icon that I somehow like. I make most of my profile avatars with GIMP 2.10.8.

    I found this gif to be ridiculously enjoyable, so I decided to use it with my new username.

    I had to make logo of myself in school. Firstly I made only C/K version. Then I realized I can add something related to cars. I looked for dashboard icons. I used break shape because it really fit with letters inside. I made basic logo on bw colors and some solid color variants. Then I got idea to add gradient at background. That's all story about it. I got really good mark for it btw.

    It was extremely boring story aren't it?

    Mine was originally a confused monkey gif, until me and natandog posted on the same thread, and he had the same picture as me, so I jumped into paint and made what is is now

    My 1/64 diecast 1970-71 Plymouth Barracudas but I combined them all into one. :p

    This avatar was actually kind of a pain to make tbh but I'm satisfied with the result :D

    I grew up around these engines and I'm in the minority that actually praises them. Were they perfect? Far from it. However, they provided okay power, were ridiculously reliable when taken care of, or even when beat on. My old place of work had a late 90's E-150 with the 5.4 in it and it went over 400,000 miles before it finally locked up. I don't remember it getting an oil change while we had it. My dad had two F-150's with these engines, and my mom had two Expeditions. Never had a single problem out of them. Okay, one of the Expeditions needed a cam phaser but #3vlife

    They also sound nice, top is my video:



    They spawned my love of Ford pickup trucks and I wish Ford gave them the love they deserved. The 4-valve variant in a modern aluminum F-150 would be stupid amounts of fun.

    Long live the 5.4

    It's my car! (kinda- my names not on the title but once my dad gets a new car it'll be mine. I've replaced the entire front suspension, part of the rear, repaired a flooded control module, fixed some engine stuff, and some other things here and there.)

    Current one is an icon stolen from Windows 10.
    Last one is stolen from a post in r/ayymd.
    The one before the last one is stolen from a F12tdf review website in Evo Magazine's website.
