It is a future goal, but i have a lot of things in my plate right now between running two businesses and a family. Not until i build my house …which follows moving out of state. Probably just sell the t-rex and focus on the other priorities. The attack was an idea that was dropped in my head…that’s all. ---

Roarrrr i was there when u posted this lol only looked at the ones over 65k when u can get turnkey for half that from non greedy sellers lol but over all not having to do with his statements, i like the car, i mean you can change alot on the car which i would change alot on them to my likings but yeah u can get a really nice one, about 400 hp and light, seems fun to me, plus im sure someone somewhere could manage to make a top for it if you feel like driving one in rain and snow lol. oh well ---

I know nothing performance wise of either vehicle but here’s my opinion as one of the people who’s head you would turn by driving such vehicles. If I saw the T-rex going down the road, regardless of speed, i’d still turn to a friend, point, and chuckle a bit as it is a goofy looking vehicle, the attack would get me to say “thats pretty cool.” At the very least. Just my $0.02 ---
