I know thieves aren’t smart. But damn that thing is super fucking famous. I guarantee it’ll be spotted within a few weeks.

They probably knew excactly what they were doing, I’ll bet they just wanted the engine.

I don’t get it. It just looks like a shitty truck to anyone that didn’t know what it was. Also, they must have flat bedded it out because shit is loud yo.

I mean it’s not like it is well known and makes quite a racket, oh wait. Hopefully they are able to find it before it ends up stripped.

Did they take it down? Its not coming up in my feed...

they probably knew what it was. odds are its already been stripped for the drive train. DF did mention its got like 25K worth of motor and trans in it.

They should use a different pic to clarify which truck they’re talking about. That Dodge isn’t far enough in the background to avoid confusion.

the muscle truck is well known enough that they dont need to.

I agree, but I’m trying to look at this from the perspective of someone who might not already be a fan.

CalzoneGolem > bob and john 01/26/2017 at 12:57

That thing is 90% motor and trans and 10% truck shell haha.

Well they aren’t going to drive it around they’ll probably strip out the motor and trans and discard the rest. That being said ... A little bodywork and a paint job and it would be completely unrecognizable.

Yup. Steal a heavily modified car and sell off the parts online over time.

Hilarious update, it wasn’t stolen. It was towed from the hotel parking lot because they thought it was abandoned.

I updated it after I stopped laughing at the Facebook post

Wait, it has plates, doesn’t it? I’d like to hear what part of its “abandoned” look justified a tow.

bob and john > Urambo Tauro 01/26/2017 at 13:28

Me too. Hotel might have been super fucking pretentious. But still, after 1 night? And the car IS clean.

I’ll update as I get more.

Well, glad they got it back. That’s pretty funny.

It was a LaQuinta, so how pretentious can they be?

Often it’s the tow companies just unilaterally deciding they need some money, so they take it upon themselves to tow.

bob and john > Hammerdown 01/26/2017 at 13:37

Who knows. But this does confirm it was towed out. Everyone would have heard it otherwise. Person/company who called for its tow should foot the bill in either case

BWAHAHAHAHA!!

That is the most Roadkill thing EVAR.

I’m guessing there’s one pissed off Frieburger in a hotel lobby right now.

Along with one Finnegan who can barely stand up due to laughter.

I hope Freiburger said some nice words to the towing company.

For what it’s worth, I’ve never even heard of the muscle truck. I also don’t watch Roadkill. I would imagine there’s probably a whole lot more of my kind out there than people that would know what it is. I tend to agree with UT.

I get the sense that that isn’t his style. I, on the other hand, would probably unload on them .... after I got my vehicle back.

The mismatched body panels? I dunno, i’ve seen cars tagged and towed just for PARKING overnight on some properties.

This totally should be a Roadkill episode. NOT behind the damn MOTD paywall!!

The Rotsun has around 30K in modifications according to Finnigan when he was in the LeMons inspection pits (cued up to the exchange where he hilariously tries to justify not getting a massive BSF penalty).

Oh, maybe that’s it. Maybe this has something to do with how or where the truck was parked, rather than its looks. I dunno, RK’s update post does claim that the reasoning behind incident was appearance-based, but whoever poorly parked the truck in that pic might have been the same person who parked it the night before...

RK response was probably tongue in cheek.

It’s a La Quinta inn. The roaches there probably sell crack.

Joking, but it is “value priced” lodging.

Freiberger mentioned in an episode that Muscle Truck had something like $60k worth of performance stuff.
