I could build what I want for less than 60 grand.... But I really don't know how much it costs to do a LB conversion....... And why would you want a LB conversion if you're not using the bed?

But I do like the burnout pic , at least he's honest. I'd have to say no thanks though.

This happens when they really believe in there products. Not saying it happens everywhere, but it does happen.

As far a EGT's are concerned I'd be more concerned if he still had the stock charger like a lot of people on here have with huge amounts of fuel. The truck looks good but if I was going to spend 60k on a truck like that I would much rather build it myself.Me too!
Yeah I agree with most of that, but I am just skeptical when it comes to stuff like this. Depending on the money factor I really have to know what the trucks been through. If a guy can't tell me......forget it. Least they're not hiding anything!

I do like what rye said about the 64-12 being a big turbo. he must not have seen like a big brother or something like that. the truck is neat but not something I would buy either. ive got alot less in mine and I bet it will outrun, outpull and out dyno that big money pit

But hold on remember he has the and I quote BIG 64/12 wow thats huge. And no I would be afraid I would get hit by lightning in a church parking lot, and if you saw my grandma drive you wouldnt buy from her either.

He has trucks on ebay all the time, its just to advertise his business. Who is going to pay 65k (actually more since its reserve not met) for a used 06. Come on if that was on a dealers lot it would be lucky to see 40k.

You can do it in Indiana for 2k plus the cost of a longbed and paint.

well, unless you get a screamin deal on a long bed, you'd wind up paying about the same there. those beds aren't cheap. nor is a good paint job.
