For me it was cool, being so low and wide, but for the Blazer it sucked ass!

So let me get this straight

not only do you not have a BLACK DOG

but you drive with your eyes closed

what the hell is going on here

Doing it in the dark with no rocklights was just about as bad as doing it with your eyes closed

ad I almost broke a headlight then

from two lights down to one, I may have had to use one of my DOT approved zipties to strap my maglight to the front of the truck
