I saw bigfoot today
 
No not the naked harry guy running around in the woods but a big ass truck pulled up next to me at the light.How big you ask?Well lets see if I can get this right:Ford F350,4door,long bed,diesel,custom tubular bumpers front and back,with like some 40" off road tires(well they looked huge to me)and like a 16" lift.
Whats so special about that you ask.Well I had never noticed how low my car was.Or maybe that ---- was really big couse its wheel hubs were about level with the bottom of my window :o.
Then I got to thinking of what would happen if I was to meet this guy at the intersetion when one of us ran a red light. :'(
Then at lunch today I read in the paper about a lawsuit going on to try and stop compannies frome making such outrageous lift kits for street trucks after 4 were killed after a "T bone" accident at an intersection between a Jeep Cherokie and a Nissan with tubular bumpers and a 12" lift.No one in the Cherokie survived.They never had a chance.The tubular bumper went through the window decapitating the driver and his 14 year old son.The other 2 people died af "massive force injuries".
What are these guys trying to prove.Compensating for something with that huge truck?I have a truck too but I dont fell the need to lift it.I dont really worry about me but it freeks me out that my wife and son are driving around while im at work with these big ass trucks speeding down the road.
Here in San Diego the next big thing to rice is lifted trucks.And damm there getting bigger.

We have TONS of lifted trucks out here. All of them are lifted at least 6 inches. There are a few that are just rediculous and look stupid because they are so high. They don't even have 4wd because the front driveshaft won't clear the suspension. I like trucks and I like off-roading, but when your truck becomes so top heavy that a sharp turn may roll it, that is when you have a problem. You living in California probably see just as many as me. They all come from California down here to launch there 60ft. boats. Fuckers. >:(

I have a 78 Ford, 460 engine, 12 inch lift, and 40 inch tires. I don't have exhaust either so it's ------- loud as hell and my custom bumper is the size of a small car. All you guys that don't like big trucks drive through Longview and I will run your ass over. ;)

las cruces, nm is rated #3 I think for off roading. we have our share of lifted 2 wheel drives that have off road tires that have never seen dirt and are really load on the road. but there are a few trucks, mostly toyotas, that kick ass off road. we've got a place called mule barn 4x4 that sells lift kits and ---- like that, you're only cool if you have a mule barn sticker.
