Price is kind of high, for that money I would just get a new 2010. Then again with that brand new one you won't be able to park on top of a corvette lol

I think you'd get a kick out of that truck for a few months, then realize the hassle of driving/parking/cleaning/maintaining that thing...

I'd get a Silverado SS or a regular Silverado for that matter.

I can't even imagine trying to wax or even wash that. What a PITA! It's a pretty sweet looking truck, but looks more for show than for real off roading.

way too crazy of an angle. I have an 02 f250 lifted 6" and for the 8" kit the driveshaft has to be modded. At that my truck is a bitch to drive. I can't imagine how it would suck to drive that thing.

True but to me a truck has to be lifted and 4x4. It also has to be totally usable in every way a truck should be(towing,off-roading)

You can always make something work, a friend of mine build custom trucks and he's makes all of them work, some even higher than that.

Thank you...that thing is an eye sore. I hate those "LOOK AT ME, I HAVE A SMALL DICK" trucks. I respect a tastefully lifted HD truck that is more suited to performance than monster truck looks.
