yea i saw that...sad to see it go but it sounds like he just doesnt have the time or it isnt fun anymore, and too much like work. i think thats why alot of guys give up serious hobbies after a few years because it becomes too demanding to stay competitive.

Go for it. There's probably more to the story than we know though.

Am I seeing that right? Does he have that larger turbo plumbed into the smaller one? I've never ran a twins setup, but that does seem counter intuitive.

Likewise! That truck has been hammered on harder than any of us could ever hammer a truck.

I'm not saying that Scott and his crew didn't take good care of it, but it is only valuable to someone who is going to use it for the exact same purpose that it was originally built for.

I don't think that he's selling the truck as a daily driver. I think he's selling it as a sled pulling truck. He's even got pictures of the truck sled pulling.

Yeah I'm thinkin that truck wouldn't be a very good "DAILY DRIVER" That truck was built to pull and that's about it......it's hard a hard life but that's what it's intentions were.

Well even if you bought it for pulling everyone would be like oh look there is that guy in Scott's truck, oh yep I told you Scott drove it better than this guy.
