    you have got a few 79s sitting in the background. that portal build of Tom's is a great looking rig but the price tag would be pretty scary.

    All very cool. But, for a Brisbane build, and no doubt, a suburban life, that is a shit tonne of money!
    Vehicle, $90k+, canopy $30k+, solar $10k+, portals, tyres, rims, drawers, bar work, mirrors, roof top, stereos, radios etc etc etc. you would want to spend at least one night a week camped at ur local shopping mall car park!
    No wonder he couldn’t afford a winch or spotties!. But he could use his mounted Offroad jack if he gets bogged.
    No doubt an amazing build, but pretty hard for an average bloke, or even a wealthy sensible person to attain or justify.
    As a bloke who lives in the bush, owns 3 old 4wds, has to drive 60kms on dirt, and thru a bonnet deep creek each way everyday to get to work, I really don’t get it.
    That said, everyone in the marketing departments of all the different brands used in this build, definitely deserve a pat on the back 👍

      @@BAWAutomotive fair enough, in this case I’m obviously wrong. Possibly not in the case of all the vehicles in the background, unless they are all bush trucks too! My point is still the same but mate. It’s another $200k 79. Very cool for sure, but like I said, for an average bloke, crazy money! Just sayin, no offence intended

      mate now you're just hating. obviously, this build is not for everyone but for someone who can afford it and has gone through these guys to show what they can do. you think too much negativity in your life, and it shows in your whole paragraph. this is a great build if you can't afford it then that's not their problem that's yours.

    Awesome rig, gotta be about or over $250,000 - awesome for a business owner with excess cash burning a tax write off but a pipe dream for everyone else.
    Not sure I'm a fan in the own opinion about adding all the extra failure points with all the air, hubs, in cab controls. Idk just seems like you'd come across this bloke in the bush stuck and he'll probably get pulled out by some shitbox GQ patrol lmao. Always the way with these over the top builds I guess.

Anyway, that's completely reasonable - these are about $90-100k brand new, or $120k second hand with a few km's and the basics. Not unreasonable to expect 250k from this, dodge rams are about $130-150,000 here.
