Or you could buy a Chapman Supertruck from Chapman Chevrolet in Arizona, fly down there, drive it back to Wisconsin with gas at $4.00/gallon, and still be better off.

Did I mention that the Gibbs was overpriced?

I am not too sure that it is WAY overpriced. I have had the experience of driving a RCSB Gibbs truck for about 2 weeks now.....The brakes are incredible, the power is seamless, the interior is comfortable and very attractive, and the performance was great at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. 13.95 @ 101.

Overpriced is just an opinion on this one, if I wanted a complete truck that was under factory warranty this would be my first choice in the Chevy Line up.

If you are interested in one, let me know.....I have a few connections

I am pretty sure if you build your own you will save some money.....Just remember, time is money.

See the wheels were the part I liked most... oh and by the way...

47,000 dollars for a single cab is FU***** REDICULOUS

and even more rediculous than that was the Jow Gibbs Tahoe it wasnt 50000 it wasnt 55000 it wanst even 65000 it was 68000 dollars.... Go buy a viper... I mean jesus....

Now on a lighter note it is a good lucking truck... but I think its a "little" over priced

Personally, I would use a blown tahoe for 20k less than a 2 seater viper though.. I do like the fact that they offer that package in diff. trucks though.

you can get the tahoe way cheaper than that. one of my buddies picked one up for 45-50,000. beautiful truck!! its fast for how big it is i guess?? i heard 15.2 in the 1/4. im below that in an extended cab without any power adders.

Yeah, the Joe Gibbs tahoe lists for 67k but im willing to bet they come off of that one some. The dealership me and CAMMIN03 went to had 3 Joe Gibbs trucks in...one Tahoe-67k, excab stepside truck-47k and single cab stepside -42k. The tahoe needs to come down alot, and i dont see how either one of those trucks will sell w/out coming at least 10k off of sticker..but, with that being said, some people have more money and dont worry about it so much.
