Ohh, forgot to say, testing was done in ocotillo and Barstow, as well as Lucerne. If you want more footage of the truck, there should be some good footage of it in dezert people cinco, the movie. I saw the truck in the movie trailer...

But some parts are overkill on it, like the motor. There is no need for the truck to have that much HP, and the travel numbers are kind of a bit much, considering the majority of the Trophy trucks out there don't even have that much travel up front. But although I say I would do things different with it, I would love to have that thing sitting in my garage right about now instead of my ranger...
Never too much HP. You know that would be fun at Glamis or Dumont

you my friend must not have not spent much time in the sand, you could air that thing out enough to use ALL of the available travel, and that would be FUN

It looks to be at the sand highway? or maybe Yuma, AZ area. I've seen alot of stuff on this truck. It's running a twin turbo 460. Can't think of a better way to use that kinda motor.

My buddy is into the whole prerunner thing. Here's his, it's what he calls "a race truck with A/C and a CD player"
