When you type do you see red squiggly lines under some of the words?

Do you have, or know anyone who has an iPhone? There exists an iPhone app called Autodesk 123D Catch. With that you could walk around the pickup and take 32-100 pictures of it from various angles and distances (close-ups of the wheelwell, etc.) and recieve a high-resolution triangulated polygonal model of the truck as it exists to a higher level of precision than a typical 18th scale model.

Then there's some mumbly hand-waving to get to a 3D printable file.

Then the 3D printing is available as a service over Internet and probably as a walk-in service in major cities.
