    That's a horrible idea. What time?
    In four years I'm eligible to retire. All I have to do is get there. And I don't think I'd fit in a Lambo.

    Bright side, there maybe a power play to make. I applied for an SME position on the team I left. If I'm being pulled back due to a skill set, then give me the SME. Comes with a pay raise and the same hours I have now.

    For over 100k I'd expect all headrests to match, maybe they use the camo one to cover the hitch?
    Probably the last car I'd expect a :canada: sticker in haha

    It’s crazy how flimsy the frames are. Take your rear bumper off and and you can twist and flex the frame with your hands.

    It was amazing to me how rigid it became with just a cross brace.

    I think the: bed, bumpers, engine, possibly muffler, are all engineered to be structural supporting members of the frame.

    I keep forgetting. Gave in and bought the M18 saw. You chance to pick up a Stihl MS251 for cheap. With an extra or two. Did I say cheap?

    1 is none - 2 is 1? JK I don’t need another one yet but killer deal.

    It blew my mind when the frame flexed the RTT into my rear window. How many frame reinforcement modifications do you plan on having? Engine bay reinforcement, Boxing sections, LCA tabs, cross member, and I assume the custom cage provides a bit of stiffness?

    I'm still trying to figure out how you made that happen. It makes my brain reboot.

    I would liken it more to a tent. The supporting rods (frame) are flexy until they are connected to the tent (all the other parts on the truck).
