Long Travel BS Thread

yes travisfab. and well shit. im hoping to have the truck done before christmas so once im on that roll, we will have to have a meet up somewhere so i can tune some shocks! who has a nitrogen bottle for rent?!

 

i would not buy that for 650k.... thats a crazy stupid price?????

 

hm....do i want to buy a house or a truck....choices.....

 

or a couple houses and a bad ass truck.. lol

 

$649,999 for you.


Are they even street legal?

 

Beautiful truck, but give me a break... $650K. That's private jet and/or helicopter price tag.

 

Yeah they are street legal.

For $650k I'd go to Geiser Bros and a Quadcab one built like the Riot truck. Or I'd buy a TT and a FJ and a Taco lol

 

My glass is being "shipped out thursday"

 

Isn't that Craig Stewarts DD?

 

Niice keeping Tim busy!

 

i thought it was too...IDK

i agree with everybody... $650K is a retardedly high price...

 

what do you guys think a fair price is for that truck??


how much do you think it cost them tobuild it without labor, and how many labor hours do you think?

 

500-750k is the normal going rate for high-end luxery prerunners. They are TTs with the inside that looks like a damn Benz in there. A TT runs around 350-650k and those don't have as much inside work into them. I'll post some pictures when I get back to my office from lunch.

 

You mean if, my Company built these for customers on a "regular" basis?

Everything is "one-off-custom" but this is what they do. I would estimate everything is marked up at least double what it cost them to produce. That may be what they need to do stay in business though.

It would be interesting to see a spread sheet of everything that goes in to them.

 

So the Motor and Trans alone in something like this is upwards up $60k+

is this anyone on here?

 

Hey mike, I have never built something like before. lol Never had the request for one so I'd have no idea how much something like that would run. Right now I'm only working on Bottle Cap Head badges, Valve caps and Beer can Headlights. so I have samples to give to bike shops. I may be doing a bike for a local sports bar here soon.

 

I do.......

 

Anyone got some valving recommendations for a first gen rear with a simple bedcage spare and 200 pounds of gear and junk?
I'm going with saw 2.0x14.

 

What springs?
