Re: Truck Flippers are scum.

I try to not make such blanket statements, everybody this, they all that. That's ain't me. The world ain't black & white, brudda. They's a wholotta grey in between.

I remember when flipping meant you got such a good deal on an opportunity to buy something you know is well worth more money you bought it to resell. It all depends on the personality type, and there are predatory types out there who only see others as someone to get something out of. Those are the bad flippers and the ones driving the cost of these trucks up every bit as much as Barrett-Jackass. "Hey, they wanted $XXXXX.xx for that old unrestored thing on craigslist. Look at that beauty on the block. Heck, it's worth $50k by the time you buy on and do it up like that".

I like flipper
