Right on John - not dogging the game - just not in the income level as a lot of folks building C10s these days. I would say, I am part of the majority that drives the industry though.... When it all started back in the day (the 40s/50s) hot rodders just made things work and it was cool. Now, if you are on anything other than an unlimited budget, you only get the "look" and not the performance. As an average Joe - I have about 12k into my truck and all I have is the look... it hurts that guys like me cant get in on the performance without getting a HELOC on my house and likely a divorce to get there. LOL From a business standpoint, whats the profit on kits like this after all the R&D? I look at long travel suspension kits for off-road kits which take a much harder beating and they are less or close to the same price. I just don't understand it. Supply and demand I suppose. Its a cool set up though... No doubt you guys have the best products on the market.
