I'll definitely give you that people should pay more attention to desert vehicles & their components/fabrication. You can find some of the most functional stuff on the planet. I keep an eye on yall, I just don't have the money to use any parts that are remotely similar to what is used in yall's stuff. The high-end comp stuff is $$$ x infinity, but is absolutely smokin
