Re: $143,000 truck

im with you jmr5. nice truck, but not my cup o tea. as for BJ, I'd rather cruise the parkin lot than spend the $$$ to watch rich folk fight over something they'll seldom drive.

i guess you can tell i'm a little biased... I look at it this way - I really loved chevs long before BJ came along. The only thing that has changed after they came along is that now all the old junk i have always loved has tripled in price. While I watch it in HD like the rest of y'all for some good entertainment (and astonishment at what folks will pay for stuff) - I still don't think it's done much for the grass roots of the ol truck hobby.

My 2 cents only, and that's about all it's worth.

Re: $143,000 truck

Mercedes truck made me throw up in my mouth a little. ok since a couple already said this...its a bit tacky. im sure they had a wrecked benz and used the parts, if they had a kia, it might have been mixed with that.

They did start with a wrecked Benz. I talked to the owner when it was at the Brothers show. They also had to sign paper work saying it would be registered as a chevy truck and not a Mercedes Benz.
