...you can't use the drivethru window at the local burger shop

That's funny, at our local arbys you basically need a lifted 4by to use the drive thru.

You can go through life being scared of the possible, or you can have a little fun and tease the inevitable.

Give a man venison, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to hunt Blacktail, he'll be frustrated for life!

That's funny but true, I was driving the Willys to work one day and a CHP pulled in behind me, followed me for a couple miles then pulled along side on the right side, dropped back behind me and I go oh, oh, then he pulls out along the left side picks up his mike, keys up his loud speaker and goes, "Nice Willys" and then jets off..... Whew.
we had that happen to us too, except the trooper pulled up next to us as we were still moving, he yelled over to ask Mark what size tires he has! LOL!!

When, due to recent surgery (on both knees) you have to ask someone else to get in it and steer when it's time to push it around the garage.









I can almost get in it...another week or so and I'll be all over that sucker!

We had that happen too. Had a local cop yell out "what size tires are those?" I replied with "what" first then said "38's" and he just yelled "Daum" and laughted.

I thought he was going to pull us over and give us the riot act.

When you can't go down to 4WP and buy tires anymore, since they only carry 49" tires.

How about when you can't tell you are getting pulled over because the lights are lower than your tailgate until the cop chirps the siren.  :smack: That has happened too.

It wasn't a joke either, we had to make an insurance claim on that one.

The worst part about when I did it was, the person that owned the Camry was in the truck with me. The only reason I stopped was because he yelled "My car is back there!" We got out and sure enough it was back there, or under there. The rear bumper was about 4 inches from going through the windshield, the rear square tube bumper had skidded up the hood all the way to the base of the windshield. The hood was wrecked as well as the left fender. Too bad I had a fullsize, if it was my Toyota I probably would have felt it.

When your rear bumper just barely slides over the trunk of a Nissan Sentra.  Happened to me a couple weeks ago.  Wasn't looking behind me while backing up.  My truck shuddered and them i was wondering what i hit since i only had a rear veiw mirror and didn't see anything back there.  Got out and found my rear bumper sitting ontop of the truck of the sentra.  My shackle bolt broke the brake light.  My bumper didn't even leave a mark though.  And i did pay for the brake light.
