I watched it again, that paint job is something else. He really liked that power tailgate and gave it a great endorsement. I see they just went off sale for a little over $400, not too bad. I didn't catch what engine they had, but it looked like a big block. What a beautiful wood bed, but can't put anything in it, fantastic to look at, speciall if you have the money. I wonder if they are going to put the electric tailgate on that truck?

It's not even the porduction model. It's the second proto-type. If I remember correctly

Yes. I'm a Ford guy, but I would take that truck any day of the week. I watched the show today and became infatuated with it. I want it!

Now only if he could finish crazy horse. I thought that the motor was the 502 big block (man the exhausts with the option to go open header at the flick of a switch is gonna be awesome).

Has anyone ever installed a tire mount like the one put on Crazy Horse a few weeks ago? Man, that thing looks sick sweet.

That intro girl for the Powerblock thing said it has over 600hp. The crate motor 572 is rated at 620hp so it's pretty much how it came from chevy.
