Default Ford F-350 Scorpion!

So today I went to the LHS, and I was really happy and surprised to see an F-350 Hi-Lift finally. Walked over and noticed that it was quite customized, four linked and everything. With weird green links. And a TVP that said Axial on it. Hmm, an AX-10 (the first I've ever seen) with a Hi-Lift body and a big front skid-plate/bumper. And 4WS. Seems to me like somebody was trying to do everything at the same time, hook up some 40 series tires and wheels and the Frankenstein would be complete.




I dunno, it seems to me that they managed to defeat all of the purposes at once.

Sorry for the crummy cell phone pic, I don't think I was even supposed to take that but....

Also while I was looking at the truck, I literally got run into by a 15 year old kid who was in the store with his mom, the little bugger couldn't even take his eyes off of his GameBoy as she tried to interest him in all the RC around him. When I was his age, I was saving my lawnmowing money to buy new tires and front oil-filled shocks for my Hornet, then begging my dad to drive me to the store once I had enough. Didn't matter a bit to this kid where he was as long as he had his video game. Oh well.

I really don't understand how people can not like RC. Most every body I know just sits in side on there computer. I have very few friends that even ride any more. To busy with the computer games and crap.
