Hey Bob, if they were to actually put a Megacab Laramie 5500 into production and create a dealer-installable kit to turn it into one of these (which is the only way I could see this happening), how much do you think this total package would cost? $100,000? Less? More?
When we were at the dealer a couple months ago we saw a 3500 megacab Laramie with the western/saddle interior, and it was a $60,000 truck, at least. Might have been more like $70K.
I assume that the problem with building a truck package like this is that eventually it becomes more practical for the buyer to buy a Kenworth or Peterbilt or some other big truck, rather than a very custom pickup like this. I would imagine this would be more practical for those few buyers who would also use it like a somewhat normal truck frequently...
