I guess, I just mean that it's really frustrating if it doesn't work, and/or breaks easily. I hate getting something for free, and it is broken, and i have to spend money to fix it, even if it was expensive.

i would guess that would be well over $1000 with all of that aluminum, hell even the turnbuckles and rod-ends look to be seriously upgradded. That is a beautiful truck. almost too beautiful to abuse, which is what a savage is primarily intended for.

I hooked him up on the price of a real car

I'm a Internet/Fleet Manager at a Ford dealership.... gave him a really good price on something when he told me he worked for HPI [sm=tongue.gif]
