    HA

    Try driving in downtown San Francisco. Not only are the drivers absolutely terrible, they are entitled as hell.

    Oh and going 10-15 above the speed limit is the norm... lol.

    I tried both of them, a magnetic rooftop one and one I bolted to the front fender lip with a grounding strap. I could never get my high SWR down. Could be my radio is bad, I have no idea. I just gave up. Lol.

    Can't imagine driving something longer than a car through the hills of that city. Lol.

    This happens often.

    The problem is you were driving through, pride parades are all sorts of fun as long as you dont just encounter them as traffic. Gotta stop and join in, you'll never get so much free candy and compliments anywhere else.

    Bhahaha Lombard is hilarious. I saw someone who lived on that street throwing beers at the tourists walking on the sidewalk once.

    This is Lombard St. for people who don't know

    He took a wrong turn, then had to sit for hours as they walked by. Pretty sure my uncle wanted to set loose his new air horns

    How are these working out for you? How would you compare these to some of more expensive brands?

    Haven't had a chance to do much. Have a couple things to do, then I'll go somewhere and give them some exercise.

    Ahh I see. I’m trying to figure out what shocks to use in the rear end, that come at a reasonable price and work great. I’m breaking my bank with front coils and leaf springs and I’m not trying to spend 800 on piggy backs.

    It's been crazy weather wise recently. The water came up over one the bridges I take to school and over the road headed to the body shop.

    Speaking of body shop, I drove by today and saw that my truck was inside the shop being worked on!

    Thats hysterical, only way to get around in that city is to constantly break traffic laws. Only thing that pisses me off is all the no left hand turns and the fucn bus lanes that keep you from taking a right. Bombing down hills on a skateboard is pretty fucn fun there though haha, so is skateboarding in sf in general

    There's a video of someone slip and sliding down a street, it's hilarious.
