    Is there any info on what happened to the owners? Are they still trucking? If so, with this same truck fixed up? Can't find anything anywhere, but I don't know the name of the company or the owners.

    Last I heard the owners were alive and well and driving there KR super truck hauling freight. I talked to the owner of Micro blue and he gave me the low down on how he had to find a quality shop and work together with them to get the truck running properly. Pittsburgh power and the owners of the truck did agree on a settlement to try to make it right , but it was a different shop that was finally able to get the truck to run correctly.

    Ok. I wonder what their fuel mileage is after they got it running correctly. It's a shame that after everything that happened, we never even got to hear if the "Signature Truck" was any better on MPG than any stock truck.
     
    Siinman, Bean Jr. and Oxbow Thank this.

    The biggest scam of the whole entire deal was the fact that this poor couple spent reportedly over $200,000 to do exactly what ? Get a truck driving job.

    Call micro blue and ask the owner Craig if he would give the contact info of the owners and you can hear the story directly from them. I found the owners Facebook page and all that but it was a while back so … I remember them making the statement that they reached a settlement with Pittsburgh Power but didn’t really want to talk more about it. In my opinion even if the truck was getting 10 mpg consistently it was still a terrible deal considering the all out nightmare they went through.

    Yeah, when you think about it, an Evolution or a VNL860 spc'd with every PROVEN fuel mileage option known to mankind is less than 200K today. They spent that almost a decade ago...:oops:
