All im saying is it isnt that big of deal do get done or have.I find it as easy as getting your windows tinted these days. Sure i have a 2 BD minis right now. I dont think its a big deal at all.I find it to be of the normal. Ive seen alot of nice trucks out there that havent been bagged..and to say the least are prolly better than anyones truck that has posted on here. Im just saying saying its petty. And my truck will have 16s on it shortly Jay. So we can team up lol
the funny thing is if it was bagged and bodydropped people would still be bitchin of the cost because they dont know how good the work is...
I guess if it was bought new and the paint was pretty spendy...I could see where he has 85,000 into it but the paint aside it is still just a mild custom.
plain suspension and interior mild stereo I just dont see where it is capable of getting 65...maybe 35
a $20,000 paint job? IMO that's too much. he should've just left the truck in los angeles or santa ana and the paint job would've been free. just add the price of the clearcoat.
anyway... i haven't seen this truck rolling the streets and i live in the city next to huntington beach. personally, i think the wheels suck. "but they're jesse james wheels." guess what, jesse james clowns on mini truckers, saying mini trucks are like mopeds. i don't really see where there's $85K invested. ok, suspension is what, about $1K, paint $20K, wheels/tires $15k, bodywork about $2K, stereo probably $5K.
where's the rest? oh i know, that 8-inch antenna was about $40K.
i agree that for that much invested, you should've gone all the way with bags or a BD, especially with those graphics. wait, maybe he has lambo doors and that's what we forgot to mention.
In my opinion, nobody on here tossed this guy the funds to build HIS truck so shut the fuck up it's not your money being spent.
well then he should keep it as HIS truck and not try to sell HIS truck.

Tell that to the guy who saved for eight months so I could stock floor his truck.That shits not petty at all.That doesn't mean I believe in the rule book for minitruckin these young bucks follow nowadays.

mtm your right its his money that he spent. But dude you know he didn't spent that amount on that truck and if he did he got ripped off. I wouldn't buy that truck for more than $25,000 oh yeah does wheels suck A**
I bet he spent every bit of $85g if he paid labor for all of the work that is done to it. Just because you dont have that kind of money doesnt mean that somebody else will love the truck and drop cash for it. It sucks the resale on custom rides. You have to stick to old shit if you are even thinking of a return of any money.

Not everyone wants a bagged and body dropped custom truck. FUCKING NEWS FLASH everyone. To each there own.I think its a nice truck and has alot of work in it. Who cares if its not bagged and body dropped..His rear fender in paint prolly cost more than the bag and BD combined. I dont get why everyone is such on this bags kick..Who fucking cares..Thats petty shit..If thats all your going on to make your truck "cool" then you better get some new ideas..Cause really its old news. And i have had over a handfull of bagged and body dropped vehicles..whoopty fucking doo.
Exactly Jon. Everyone in the "scene" these days thinks everything has to be bagged and body dropped or it's not cool. That's lame. Everything looks like everything else.
I especially like the cat who said he could own a "fleet of minis" for $65K. Yeah you can do that, but you'll own a fleet of kid's trucks...
The bottom line is, if you have no intention of buying the truck, then why negotiate the price? Are any of you thinking of buying this guys truck? I doubt it, then why come on here and start a blast thread on a truck that will in no way affect your life? I havent been on this site in a while. Mainly because of stupid shit that people start when they have nothing better to do. This thread being a prime example. Use your time to wrench on your fucking truck so that one day you can be the guy on the other side of the fence, and listen to people bitch about the price of something they could never afford.
