wow i wish i had that kind of money to piss away

[mnstang]

why not?

[Fosters]

Could have had a raptor and then some for the kind of money he's dumping in that thing...

[Newbomb Turk]

He could have bought a diesel and spent 3k in mods and tuning and made the same power, more torque and better mileage. I really try to be open minded about things, but that seems silly.

[sinSStr]

Turned out pretty neat, but stupid none-the-less.

[Mullet Tuner]

Because he can?

[LX Sport]

who cares.

Mentions right in the thread that he didn't want a raptor due to limited towing capacity.

Kind of a cool truck, probably would have just bought a 6.2L super duty myself though.

Its a god damn truck.

[CCr]

Its a god damn truck.

pickups are more than just a box. just like a woman is more than a box. a pickup needs good handling on the street. a woman needs good hard handling in bed. sure you can have a nice soft suspension that handles like a jello shot. a woman with a nice soft suspension will handle the same. I prefer a hard suspension with the ability to go mudding still. same with a woman .

A 1500 isnt a truck, it cant haul much at all. Pretty worthless, might as well trade it in for a subaru with a trailer hitch
