    Yeah, I'll see what happens when I go to pick it up today. I was hoping to be able to just find one or maybe a set of 4. Online I could only find sets of 16 or more and I could find a set of 24 for the same price as the set of 16. Thanks for the info.

    Funny thing is for me, I see the value in that. Vehicles at that level are driven hard and because of that, tend to also break. I'd value the ins and outs knowledge I'd gain during that experience to know that I now know what's right and wrong and possibly how to deal with it myself when it happens. I have two trucks in my driveway that are arguably at that level and they've both been down to bare chassis and back myself for maintenance and repairs. One being a tacoma and other a F150. Had I not built them myself, doing that would've been just that much more of a PITA. LOL

    But I do see your point in getting a turn key ride... For some like me though, I see value in the hands on.

    Too many to list..
    From what I understood (According to the owner (Meet him @702trucks meet)) When you purchase the "Kit", your allowed to help build as much as you want. That goes from the motor, chassis, suspension, body work and interior.

    He said he had about $90K into it.. It was BADASS for sure.

    No, but it looks like a fun trail from the youtube videos. And to be that close to the Colorado River is pretty cool too. I'm thinking about taking the family there on Saturday.
