I was thinking the same thing. LOL.

That fork lift would be nice to have in a mall parking lot near X'mas time.

At least they picked it up on end like that with the forklift! I think mine was picked up from the side at some point, which is why the running board was bent a little.

They trashed the ones on My F350. My truck is to long and front heave for them to pick it up from behind. They bent a lot of things from picking it up from the side.

So I'm curious. How do you build a 2011 x. I know you can take an 11 truck and weld the rear of the x on, right? Other option is just put the new front end on the existing excursion?

IMO, only the first of those would be a 2011 truck. The other is an older truck with a face lift.

He did an 08 that he spliced & welded the frames together and use the interior and lots of other parts from the totaled 08 to do it. I am on my phone or I would link the thread it's about 40 or 50 pages if reading though.
