I just went to Trick Trucks. Way Overpriced

[NOVATJ]

I had some time to kill at lunch so I stopped in Trick Trucks since it is right across the street here in Chantilly, VA.

I'm planning on doing a Budget Boost soon, so just for kicks I asked the guy how much they did them for. He said it would be around $700. Hard to believe that someone would be lazy enough to spend $700 dollars to have a BB installed.

I also figured I would see about CJ style mirrors while I was there. They would have ordered them for me for $60.

That place is a joke.

The place is called Trick Trucks. End of story.

Reminds me of a commercial I saw recently for an auto dealer call Mac Daddy Cars and Trucks. Give me a break. I would never think of buying a car there.

EDIT: here's an example of their inventory.

that's like going to 4wheel parts. They charge you $1,000 for a 3" lift on a cherokee, then charge $900 for four Pro Crap tires on the 4 for 3 sale....

I have a friend that's an awesome 4x4 mechanic and has his own garage and he helped me with mine and only charged me $40, plus I got the education that was drastically needed.
