Yeah, thats pretty sweet... from reading through looks like he had to cut down the pimped out limosine to do that though, and while I'm a handy guy with real life trucks I don't have the delicate touch required to perform that kind of intense surgery..

shame no one makes a regular plastic model car like I built as a kid... though I went to AC Moore the other day and looked at them there and they were $26... used to be $7 when I was in high school, and that was only a decade and change ago.

Don't need a weight distributing hitch since the Ex has the V/B lift mod. The trailer tounge weight came in at 10% since it's well balanced. Hahahahaha

Yes, I really was playing legos with the kids when I started. They lost interest after about 20 minutes and I sat alone finishing the project.

That's ok though. Then you didn't have to fight over the pieces that you needed for your project. Anybody into wood carving? That could be a fun project.

Sweet job on the Legos....I have also been looking for a 1:18 scale die cast of an Excursion, but have only seen limos and pimped out junk. I bet almost every member on here would buy one if they made one. HMMMM!

Especially if they made it available in different factory colors and had adjustable suspension height, switchable rims, etc.
