    I really don’t understand the big deal over the hilux other than it being a diesel truck because I don’t find the body style appealing. Just my personal opinion of course.

    MFG, I HATED dealing with knock-off centers. F'N lead hammers!!! :rant:

    HAHAHA, I remember you had to be careful removing (NOTE: because of the bead breaker shovel) and installing the tire because of the "spoke sealer"!!!

    Anyways, I can't remember if "Cheetas" were needed to help "air-blast" the beads on those "pizza cutters"???

    Reverse rims SUCKED ALSO!!! If I remember correctly, BMW's MIII rear wheels were reverse rims? Either case, we'd "plastic condom" and duct tape the SHI* outta the rim-clamp jaws because the wheel had a tendency to spin in the clamp sometimes, even with the plastic condom covers, and there goes your nice looking wheel. So, just to be safe, those clamps were well covered, LMAO!!!

    But yeah, knock-offs SUCKED and roughly 90% of the customers would claim they "lost" their lead hammer when in fact, they simply didn't want to use theirs. Well, from what I remember, they were charged a small fee still, LOL, for using the store's hammer. The store hammer, I would imagine, paid for itself? LOL!!!

    EDIT:
    Oh, and the best ones were the wheels that had fix-a-flat in them and it would be days, if not weeks, of that shi* just eating away at the spoke sealer!!! :rofl: F'N IDIOTS!!! :D:p:rofl::rofl::rofl:

    Now it's time for mental scaring :rofl:
    After you tell them crying attracts bears..... and they won't listen and keep crying. You get up to go pee and take the ketchup with you. While outside make a lot of noise like a bear and pour ketchup all over your arm and run back in screaming.
