    I recall winching it off the hood. If the bumper is still in use then it's a pretty good mark for relentless. Your original comment that the relentless didn't hold up seems like a dig without merit IMO. I'm all for shitting on bad products but Eric survived the Tim days and has delivered quality products for years that surpass anything trailgear puts out so instead of crapping on the little guys we should be promoting them. Just my opinion.

    That's fair and you're entitled to that opinion. Don't think I said anything unfair about it, and I certainly didn't encourage anyone not to buy his products. In fact I liked that bumper and most of Eric's products. I do think you're reading too much into my comment though. I didn't even tag Eric, because again I wasn't accusing him or his products of anything, he just showed up of his own accord and had a completely level-headed rebuttal as I would expect from him.

    No one can. That's why 14% of native Hawaiians (those that get tested) are certified diabetic.

    I've never seen or driven one. Though the 6-speed and VLSD can be fun. It should do well in the snow. A rare little car.

    World of concrete boi!!!!!


    Back when Wolverine was owned by Concut/DDM I used to pack our equipment up in crates to be shipped to Las Vegas for that show (never got to go myself). The salesmen would come back and tell me wild stories about shit that would go down.
