Double.D ッ Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 It's not what a select few "informed" fans want to see. It's what the majority of the general public wants to see that generates income and general interest. It's good business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dd908 Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 We would all like to see John Seasock have a truck to drive for 2015. I don't know a single person who doesn't want that to happen. I'm not sure what the decision was (whether it was mutual or a strict business decision), but ultimately, Feld along with any other major company has to do what is best for their company to keep it alive and kicking. Why are there 5 El Toro Locos running in the first quarter of 2015? Merchandise sales. El Toro Loco is a very popular truck, thus why there are 4 strictly Feld-owned El Toro Locos and 1 of the red bodies is running on Dan Rodoni's chassis (just for the first quarter). Same with the fact that there are 2 Monster Mutt Rottweilers and Dalmatians, and only 1 regular Mutt. The Rottweiler and Dalmatian bodies are more popular than the regular Mutt body. And to further drive the point home, there are 8 Grave Diggers for a reason. Same for why there are 3 Max-Ds. Merchandise sales play an insanely major role in what trucks go where and how many trucks there are at certain shows. Money talks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergeant Politeness Posted December 20, 2014 Author Share Posted December 20, 2014 Yeah, I mean in a perfect world they'd put Lee in a second Cleatus truck (have him do racing and Frank do freestyle) and John in some other truck (Digger maybe, would match with Zimmer) but I know business in business, still grinds my gears at the end of the day.

bkelly Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 The teeth look to round and not sharp enough. It will look good on Xtermigator, none the less. It will probably end up looking somewhat like Reptoid, only difference is that Xtermigator is a Dodge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobamatic Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 This is going to be an interesting season. Anyone on here going to the January Detroit show Saigon Shaker has been added to the lineup. I don't know if their replacing another truck or what but they announced it on their FB page. Also I think there is still at least one more truck that Monster Jam hasn't announced. The Detroit February show and other shows have "and more" at the end of the truck list with an odd number of trucks. Detroit has 15 announced so far.

Sergeant Politeness Posted December 23, 2014 Author Share Posted December 23, 2014 Methinks that's why there's so many similar lineups (Atlanta, a Tampa, an Anaheim, Indianapolis, etc) and it'd sure as hell explain why Hooked, Bad News, Stone Crusher, and War Wizard will be all the way out in Anaheim. This should be interesting. BUUUUUUTTTTT to nitpick, if it's called the Fox Sports 1 Championship, why isn't Cleatus a part of it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably to keep keyboard warriors from complaining about how it's totally rigged./s 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
