    Oh come on, you can't just write him off as a mallcrawler. Sure, by the looks of it, it is. But just because it isn't a 4x4 doesn't make it totally worthless off road.

    HAHA! I thought you were being a dick but I guess you're just giving me a hard time cause i have a trunk in LA. I love this trunk and just want to make it look as badass(for a city truck) as I can. I have a buddy with a Jeep that I should go off roading with. He just got a winch, so he can pull me out if needed-HAHA! :der:
