I think things like that are a little disrespectful to the hobby, since you have lil home made vendors selling lowboys for less the half that price. But I don't mean to disrespect anyone that's just my opinion. After all majority of my truck is built with parts from PMD. I just dont see how the trailer unless its hydraulic equipped should be more expensive then the tractor full of electronics that pull it.....its just crazy to me.

Ya, it's the Barrett Jackson of RC equipment if ya know what I mean.
I've seen it in person, top quality, great craftsmanship... But 2 grand for a trailer?.... To be honest if I did have the money laying around, I'd buy one in a heartbeat

Here's my $.02

I agree, $2k is a lot of money. However, I always thought the same about getting a hydraulic excavator. At $5,000, I thought, no way I'd ever have one. Well, I've owned one for a few years now. I had to sell 5 trucks to get it, but I've got it and am now back to having 4 rigs. Expensive, absolutely, but never say never!

That's the problem Rod, a 2 grand low boy actually costs at least 7 grand! ... There's no way I would put a Bruder toy on a 2 grand low boy! It's gotta be a real RC on that deck man! Lol
