Looks great, hell of a bad departure angle 
Looking at it though from the side, I can see some haters looking at it and saying that you just planted a JK body on a F250... (though I'd slap them upside the head myself...

Glad to see all the positive comments here, its been a BIG project and there's been a lot of thought and hard work put into it so far. The back end does extend beyond the rear wheels a decent amount but you need to remember that the tires are 40" tall so there is still A LOT of clearance there in reality. Also, Pics don't do this justice for how BIG is actually is. Watch for it on the Cover of a pretty well known magazine soon. There will be a full write up and there are still a few more things that will be added to it before its "complete".
If you haven't already check out videos from the build so far here: http://www.dtcresq1.com/video/ I believe there is another episode coming soon.
Also, if you haven't read some of the articles for each stage of the build check them out too, there's some additional information and some pretty cool pics that aren't in any of the videos here (9 separate parts/articles): http://www.dtcresq1.com/project-build/

Just saw this pic posted on Off Road Evolution's Facebook page. Looks like RESQ1 is back at ORE for the final touches. :thumb:

Can we get a pic with it next to a stock Rubi? or even a moderately built JK? I'm sure EVO has a couple of those hanging around.
Off Road Evolution just posted a comparison shot of their new 10th Ann Rubi next to the Discount Tire RESQ1
