    So it's ultimately the same as that guy with the Motormaster truck who hangs around c conventions hoping to get noticed.

    So you're telling me that every ricer with an Autobot logo I see on the street in Boston is a custom-made vehicle for the movie team? Get real.

    I was merely stating that I feel a lot of the alt modes for the movie bots are not useful as a way to get around un-noticed on an alien planet. BB's Camero, Prime's flaming truck, etc. would definitely turn heads, but that Jeep is the equivelant of a day-glo tiger with neon lights. Hardly in disguise.

    As far as these NASCAR "Wreckers" go, well I don't think anyone knows the story on them, but I assume that camoflauge is NOT their priority.

    I got a Patriot with a sticker on it. Want to put in a good word with Bay for me? It's green!

    Because probably everyone is busy filming a movie to take the time to debunk every single vehicle parked or seen near the movie set? To say no one in the production teams doesn't know what they're doing because they didn't confirm a rumor on demand is moronic.

    I've seen the list of all the Autobots and Decepticons. It wasn't there. That's why I re-confirmed in case I missed something.

    Sorry, but I know Bay personally and he has an eyes for cars, so he wouldn't pick something like that.

    If it's true Rollbar isn't in TF3, I think it's a shame that a crazy-looking truck like that isn't going to be in it. We've gotten sleek sports cars and trucks (most of the time, actually), we've gotten beaten up old cars, why not go for something absolutely crazy like that? It would make for a ridiculous cool robot mode.

    Thank god. That thing was hideous. Sorry, if the owner is on here and reads this, but way way WAY over the top. Wranglers are awesome but the utility and usability of the vehicle are completely compromised by doing that to it. I'm sure it's great fun in the mud though.

    I've seen nothing "goofy-ass" about the production so far. Only goofy-ass fanboy speculation/rage/etc at blurry photos taken by fans. From what I've seen of the production itself, it seems like any other movie production.

    Personally, I find the story extremely funny. It's a good story. My props to the fan for trying.

    Man, if Rollbar isn't in TF3, I really hope Josh Nizzi does a robot mode of him sometime. That would be sweet.

    Doesn't anyone care what Chrysler thinks? If they wanted a Jeep in the movie, that's who they'd talk to, not a guy who just showed up one day saying "My car is cool make it a robot."

    Its a self fulfilling prophecy.

    Fans expected misinformation.... Well Bay did gave some.., but not in such magnitude, and they're mostly no-brainers which a "half-a-fan" can smell from a mile a way they're fake. And they are vocal about it and proud coz they knew they're right 99% of the time.

    Now this time around, the misinformation was "accidentally" conjured up by a fan himself
    (he wanted his ride to be in the movie, but rejected). Everybody's been duped in such a way that when it finally turns out fake...... ego takes over. Majority of fans rages here are caused by "how can WE, the almightly all-knowing fanboyz, can fall for this?" rather than "my favorite bot/alt mode is not inside .. *cries* "
