rocket surgery

careful!

not one of the weird oversize impractical monstrosities that so many people seem to swoon over these days

I heard a real kicker recently. It was something like

My truck looks like it shouldn't be able to haul it but it can. Yours like it should be able to but can't.

Best instagram roast of a modern truck guy I've ever seen.

They were arguing on a post about that guy's massive grocery getter where he was defending the purchase, as usual.

I've got some big ass American iron too, but it's old and actually worth a shit. Never understood lifts you need and ladder for, and 3' beds. Totally worthless vanity boosters.

Trucks are for doing shit, not hauling your sorry ass to the grocery store.

I had a giant metal ladder fall off of the top of a work van and come right at my windshield while I was driving to my own wedding. i barely braked in time, but it had some serious Final Destination vibes. All things considered, I still think that the scariest thing that day was the final bill for the wedding.

I strap my shit good. This is pre-tie down. Plus I was just going a couple blocks in town.

Make a little birdhouse in your truck

Chicken coop.

They're illegal in some places, but I think they're mostly fine. The deal is you can't import a foreign made car unless it's more than 25 years old, so the poor American car companies don't have to compete.

The real scam is the importers get 'em in Japan for a couple hundred bucks at auction, haul 'em over here and sell 'em for 8k plus. They're pretty rad, but parts can be kind of a bitch.
