    That's not that much for all the money dumped into it. Those things stock are probably high $30's right?

    Yea, I'm sure he put $70k after all was said and done... Doing the work yourself probably helps save some scratch :p.

    Edit - although it looks like a lot of the motor/blower work was done professionally. Definitely not cheap.

    A small handful of select mods.
    The only thing I can think of is Engineers Pass on the north west side of the resort. That pass lets you drop into telluride I think. Or at least on the highway to Telluride.

    Im getting there......
    That Jeep is super sick, the build probably was about that including the initial price of the car, although it I wonder if he actually started with a stock jeep rubicon because their would be no reason to in a build like that (would have been a big waste of money.....) I am always leery of stuff like that when looking at really custom rigs like this. Also jeeps in general are really really overpriced for their construction quality!

    I don't think one is better than the other. Choose who has the best deal, or find some used and upgrade to stainless uni-balls.
