this sucks to see, but there were three built for the new Stallone movie The Expendables.... One for Sly to keep, one for stunts and one to wreck.

I agree, she sure looks straight in that one pic. But something isnt right about the truck, I have been looking and looking at it. While the wheels aren my style for this kind of truck, I think its the tires that throw it all out of proportion for me. Lower the truck a little more and give the wheels a little more sidewall. That body is toooooo chunky to be sitting on that thin of rubber bands...

oh well, not my truck

The rear tires seem to stick out about a foot wider than the fronts. Looking at the rear wheel, it seems to have some spacers setting it iout further from the hub. At least that's what I see. I'm OK with the style of rim, but I agree they need more sidewall and chrome would be nice!
