Well sorry but it is silly that trucks are just built to get destroyed.
Plus is saddening that so much time goes into building the trucks and then they just get wrecked up again in freestyle. Plus it's wasting money.
Monster trucking has just become motocross with 4X4s.
Nobody makes anything to be destroyed. And if it costs money, then what of it? It's not your money. The old school trucks took as much time and money to build as today's trucks... maybe more because each had to be built individually. There was no prefab, for lack of a better word, frames or molded bodies.

Who was the first person to use a monster truck to crush a car? Blame that guy, not today's trucks.

You can whine all day about monster jam ruining the sport, when in reality, it's just broadening it and you don't like where it's going.
This sport is just revolutionizing and you don't want to move on from the old school days
I won't make any comments about people digging in their heals and resisting change, but I will say you cannot stop the march of progress. Should bigfoot become involved with monster jam? Probably not. That doesn't make me a fan of one school or another. I think today's trucks are built stronger and safer than ever before. But! I don't like the "show," which has become very similar to wrestling. I've seen two monster truck shows, both ushra. The first was interesting because it was, after all, the first time. The second gave me a headache. The announcer was non-stop motor-mouth and just would not shut up. And they structure the shows gimmicky so the final freestyle is the climax of the program. That works for kids but it's insulting to anybody else. I will never go to another Monster Jam show, ever. That doesn't mean they should stop; it's just that I'm not a kid and don't relish being manipulated like one. No other shows come around here, so that pretty much wraps up that.
The game, on the other hand, is a nice creative outlet. I see no parallels between MJ and MTM2. One has absolutely nothing to do with the other.

Why can I never make a topic like this and people start arguing? -_-
Because topics like this are wrong. MTM2 has been built on creativity and the fact that anybody can do anything they like. Your topics state in no uncertain terms that something is wrong. Well, there is not. People don't like being accused of doing something wrong just because it's what they prefer. When that happens, there will always be somebody there to take exception.
