I’m sorry but I just can’t get excited about a performance vehicle where they just bought and installed the same supercharger kit available to everyone. Maybe I’m old, but I remember when those types of vehicles had that company’s specially chosen set of mods, including internal engine components.

Agreed. Even if it has every Steeda suspension component under the sun this screams money grab to me. Leave this stuff to the stealerships.

They just jumped on something that's pretty popular right now (sports trucks) and put there name on it. Nothing about that looks special to steeda. You can build that truck yourself and save several thousand

I am in the same boat as everyone else. Probably charging $40k for $20k worth of parts and a weekend in the garage.

It is a good looking truck though.

I think that is a good looking truck. I like the lowered look.

I also like the looks of a raised truck but most of my driving is on road, which some Class 4 roads but not any crawling or dune running.

OK, I guess I just like trucks in all their forms.

I'm not in the market for a $100,000 truck, but I'm sure it would be fun as h*ll.
