You should not have to apologize for posting the picture. Those who are condemning you & your team for having such a beautiful vehicle & trailer should do the apologizing.

Shame on everyone for picking on HOT. I thought we already went through this when T3 unveiled their driver controls & when we posted a picture of Wildstang's field. A team can spend its time, money, and resources on whatever it feels will best benefit its students and the FIRST community. A team should not be forced to defend itself for such things.

Instead of whining & complaining put some of that time and energy towards finding sponsors who will donate you cool stuff, or find some parents / community members who will help you build cool stuff. Don't just be jealous (believe me, I'm jealous of the cool cars & trucks the GM teams get) be inspired and try to find a way to get the same goodies.
