Truck to critique
OK guys and gals, I know this doesnt fit in the years, but I thought it would be worth looking at considering the listing.

I agree Mark, I could only dream of having 850h.p.
The truck is nice, I like it, but what is up with the interior?

i think it's an outstanding truck. NOx (yes, it's not NOS, it's NOx!) or not, it's still got the means to deliver. The fact he left the interior stock is not something to rag on IMO, it'd be the last thing i'd do if i were out to build something like that, and running out of money is a damn good excuse in my book.

Well, let's face it. Maybe it's something we all wouldn't do exactly, and maybe he's full of it on some things, but damn, it is nice. I bet any of us would drive it around town a few times.
Mark, I'm no fan of N20 either. I like a engine only based high HP engine. I know some will say, it's fine. But when you make high HP on engine, with no help of a supercharger, turbocharger, or especially N20, that's saying something. Superchargers and turbochargers are OK I guess, but anyone can slap on nitrous and call theirselves making big horsepower. But you can't drive around with this high horsepower all the time, unless it's built this way. Besides, nitrous gets expensive after awhile.

Hey, we like to *****.
I'm not jealous of the truck. It is nice as I said, but if I was putting this much money into a truck, I damn sure would do something with the interior too. In a truck like this, stock ain't happening.

Ok Mike, It is easy to ***** I guess when you and Dave have the nicest truck's on the Board. I get what you were saying man, im not trying to argue here! He shoulda spent another $1000 on the interior, to complete the look.

I'd hit it with a 600 shot progressive system...200 week 1, 200 week 2 and 200 week 3...but never at once in 1320 feet!

I don't have any need for a big motor like that but I like the way the truck looks.

The truck looks ok, but the rear suspension setup sucks. I was going to comment on it on FSC, but 5-8 beat me to it. There is a 4 link there, and a cantilever for the bags, AND an incorrectly installed panhard. This is just my opinon though.....
