Default WOW this is sweet................can I borrow 100K

Check this out, its called the Terra Cruzer. It kinda reminds me of the Jeep Hurricane concept.

I think it's gay. I would rather have a turn key from Blue Torch Fab then that.

Well they say that it is aimed twards the "well to do adventure seekers" not a hard core wheeler. I just think it would be fun to have and play around in, since it isn't meant to be a hardcore offroad vehicle.

It really doesn't kill the sport. Not many can do one from start to end. It's a talent that many don't have.

it looks kinda like a crossbreed of a scorpion and a jeep. It looks cool, but that's too much money to spend on something like that.

cool thing about the hurricane was the zero steer option as well as the regular 4 wheel steer stuff. It also had twin hemi motors in it.

This is a pretty neat looking rig, definatly not worth 100k. If anyone is spending 100k on a rock buggy built by anyone your nuts and are getting ripped off. You should be able to have a reputable shop build you a top of the line buggy for 50k MAX andit would be easy to build one for less than that.

Bull$hit. Call Campbell ENT, call Twisted Customs, trust me, if you want turn key, your gonna have to come to the table with a lot more than 50K.

I went and talked to my local 4x4 shop about building up my XJ. He showed me a bunch of stuff spent about an hour looking at stuff. The total for what he showed me with very little fab work was almost 25k. Now, add fab work looking at probably 75 bucks an hour, how many hours does it take to design, build, and complete a full on comp rig...

I may be a little off but describe "alot" more. Sure if you buy every peice of bling out there, but using a reliable semi bling rig, not aluminium everything I wouldn't think it could get much more than 50k for turn key.

so maybee I shouldn't have said max, but rather you can get a well built buggy from a shop for 50k.

Like it was said in the other board. They wanted it to be street legal and still be able to stuff the tires without rubbing. All I can say about the whole thing... If I had 100k it would go twards education and a house.
