That's very clean....I like it! But if it's that clean chances are he or she doesn't do any "real" off-roading with it cause it's pretty unavoidable to get out without some scratches and dings..hehe

Too much chrome underneath to off-road that thing--I like it though.

Capitol,

I agree. What's the use in it? I know it's for show only and probably never even sees asphalt, but come on. I'm like you, what happens, does a elevator come down to pick you up when the door opens? Speaking of doors. I see they shaved the door handles. Nice touch, especially since you couldn't reach them anyway.

Yes Mike an elevator does come down. Most of these high dollar big trucks have automatic retracting ladders that fold and un fold from under the truck. They are really pretty sweet when you check them out.

What kind of grille is that on the green one? It looks like an '88 + model, but not the Suburban style.

I have asked this question about a million times to my friends, but what the hell is the point of spending all that money on all that custom lift, all that stuff, and never using it off road? Some people have too much money.
