Don't think I can afford it man.

That would come to almost $200 I'm betting.
I can put some nice parts on my truck for that kind of money. :-)

I am going to seriously look into the legality and possibility of manufacturing some of these models myself.

I think it would be awesome to have a "stock" truck which you could then buy modifications for, like an air bag system [that actually worked?! :-)], lowering kits, shave kits, etc...

I think a lot of guys would buy these, or have them made, to better express their desires.

It would be even better than a 3-D rendering as you could show every angle of the truck for very little money.

Picture the custom exhaust and everything you could show, plus swapping out different wheel/tire combos?
