Re: $143,000 truck

It won "Best 4wd" at the Brothers show and it isn't even a 4wd. It's an all wheel drive,as different as front wheel drive and rear wheel drive in my book. What a rip off for all the other beautiful 4wds that entered the show.
We all have our opinions,but I don't really like it. It lacks everything I like in an early Chevy truck. Why put all that modern technology in it? Is the owner really going to use it like a modern vehicle? They say it's actually a Mercedes SUV with '55 Chevy truck sheetmetal. I guess it's the coolest Mercedes I've seen,since I'm a Chevy truck lover. But,for all that money I'd rather have a stupid high horsepower all American ground pounder of my own design,or at least input.
