Re: [MBZ] This is what a 4x4 should look like WUZ Re: Forget the $500 S55 I'm going for this
The Bantam Recon vehicle that was $735 in 1940 is supposed to be worth $13,480 now, according to https://www.usinflationcalculator.com That is at least a factor of 10 less than the cost of a real gwagon or a fake Lan Drover.
