Saw that one a couple weeks ago. They only want 23g for it! Dang thats alot. pretty cool though

however, I dont think that roof rack is gonna fair to well going down a trail. You would have to park that sucker in the middle of a field.

That is one of the nicest hunting rigs I have seen.
I'm sold, now I just need to figure out how I can come up with about 3 grand.
And, yes Texas is every thing big. Now I wonder how quickly I can drive up to Dallas from San Antonio.

Actually the reserve for that thing is 23 grand, a tad bit over priced if you ask me. If it was 3 grand that would be sitting in my driveway right now

Considering Alaska is over twice the size of Texas, that hunting rig seems a little small to me

Very few states will allow hunting from a vehicle. I remember TN would confiscate the Pieces and the Rig and auction them off...the cold generate some revenue on that one!!! Louisiana would just confiscate due to the TX plates. Arkansas would think it was an invasion and call out the National Guard. Southern Cal, especially LA would just poop there pants if you had the seats occupied

Ok.. lets get real here for just a minute.... All that extra weight....on STOCK axles w/38" Swampers... You are talking an extra 500lbs of weight or more just for all that Steel.. I don't see the stock drivetrain holding up to all that too long.. What about a larger alternator to handle the extra load? I didn't see mention of dual batteries either...

Granted it is a Nice looking Rig, but in reality.. How well will it function?

Whoever is selling that truck for $23,000 deserves a BIG OLD smack in the back of the head. He is lucky if he gets $8,000.

First of all... take a look at the interior. He spray painted it with gloss black spray paint. he even missed a few spots.

Next the darn shifter boot is all broken

I bet that rig only has the 5.0L V8 whick probably has a million miles. ALso it has that really bad Manual transmission.

Also it is probably a rust bucket... why do you think he put that camo cover over it???

Bottom line for 23000 I expect a little better fit and finish!!
