That thing is crazy. It's good to see he actually is using the lift. Most of the time people get those big ass lifts and just drive on asphalt.

I can ALMOST guarantee that he is at a photo shoot for a magazine. That is the only reason it is in the dirt!

Guarandamtee you they won't be doing anything serious in it with that puny 1/2 ton axle up front. I'd be surprised if the 4-wheel drive even works :rolleyes:

How do you get to the second floor??????

those Airbags are not designed to be inflated all thye way up like that !!!
you should only be able to see about half of the base with the bag down around it to add stability and allow flexing of bags, pop a bag on the freeway , Dude Your Done :hammerhea
ps; you can buy those FireStone (yea the Tire Maker Brand) air bags at most major truck dealers ,Peterbuilt,Freightliner..etc...for around $100 or less ea.
so if you think about it, don't let a Lift installer gouge you on the costs ....

If that guy is towing a boat with that thing he is probably getting about 2 miles to a gallon if that.

Drive that thing around now with the winds and it will blow right over. Totally impractical IMHO, but to each their own. :confused:

When I was younger, I had cars that people would always ask me "Why?"
Well, money wasn't an issue then so the answer was "Becuase I can"
If the guy enjoys it, cool with me. Its a truck that skys over most.
ya i agree... impractical??? who cares..... are any of our toys truly practical???? they are there to have fun with.... when i was a teen, i was into the mini truck thing and it wasnt practical, but fun.....

saw this one at the zoo :wink:
Now.. I don’t care much for the burb.. but I love this one.. this looks just like my truck.. but a little bigger.. If this was my second vehicle.. I would probably do this to it.. but then.. How would I get the bikes, rhino or anything else in the back of it.. I guess it wouldn’t work.. but looks cool..
OH and BTW.. I 4x4 my truck and it will go just about anywhere.. so yea.. Its still practical.. I drive it every day, I tow my boat/toys

I talked to the guys at RBP (Rolling Big Power) at the show and they said that their Ford truck, which is probably the one pictured up there, has gone through about 6 transmissions and is only a year old. The truck is on either 44" or 46" tires and add a boat behind that, boom! Might as well try to drag your house. Looks cool, but I don't think I ever would.
Biggest that I would ever go would be the 10" lift kit by Donahoe Racing and put a set of 40's under it. Anything after that, it gets stupid. Just my .02

The Burb looks like it'd fall over backwards if you stood on the rear bumper and the whole suspension just looks real fragile....Good luck to the owner on selling it :rolleyes: , I wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole.
