Is it just me or does that axle look tiny underneath all that?

uhm... does it come in green? otherwise I can't be bothered.

the real crying shame is that the only trail this thing will see is a trail-er.

Anyone know what happens to these things once the show is over, once they become last years models, no good to the corporation anymore, etc..???

I have an uncle who works for Chrysler, I should ask him.

good question. My bet is that they get vacume-packed and stored in the magical Chrysler archive garage where little hobbits turn it over once a month and polish it with a diaper.

They should give it to me so I can bag it down Harold Creek Tr.

I do believe the majority of show trucks and one-offs end up with a date in the crusher... sad as it may be.

From what I am told, anytime that a manufacturer does an extensive build up on a vehicle, its purpose is for show only.  

The vehicle is typically not released for sale to the general public due to liability reasons and ultimately meets its demise at the jaws of the crusher.

What a waste of $$$, no wonder everything keeps getting more expensive.
