    If he kept his CoG low he’s fine, 42s are heavy and planted. All other factors are correct though.

    All of the MC rigs are sweet, but his Hilux is definitely one of the coolest rigs out there. Id love to get a TacoBox into my truck

    How many Alabama rednecks have you seen that keep a low center of gravity? I can't remember a single one that wasn't lifted as high as possible. Also have to consider wheelbase for forward and backward rolling.

    There are quite a few Jeepers in AL that have well built crawlers. Mostly trailer rigs though. Wont be seeing them out on the street

    Possibly, but in my experience, oversized wheels with extremely low backspacing and thin tires, mirrors that stick out 4', and as much lift as you can achieve with blocks and spacers seems to be the norm.


    Certainly not what I would consider well built.

    I agree that that mall crawler jeeps with a hi-lift bolted to the hood and no hi-lift jack points are the norm around here. There are some unicorns though.

    The pictures of this fish don’t do it justice at all to how huge he was. Atleast four pounds if not five.
