Didn't realize they could do all the detail work as well. I'm sure it's more expensive, but can you venture a guess as to how much more so it is?
I mean, mine is no show truck, and never will be. If it's three times as much that'd be a deal breaker for me.

I appreciate your responses...I'm learnin!
