    Good argument there. I'm going to start using that as an argument for everything in life now.

    I find it has worked very well for me. Anything I dislike and/or disagree with I just call it retarded. Its great because it always pisses someone off really quick. And since I really do not care what people on the internet think of me I am ok with it :D

    I'm a big proponent of allowing people to do whatever the hell they want with their own money/life, but that doesnt mean I'm not going to point and laugh at it :D

    'Slammed' trucks look funny to me. They look like they are sinking into the pavement. The huge 20" chrome wheels with 1" sidewall tires contrasting with the 1" ground clearance cracks my shit up. But ya know what, I also have a good sense of humor about these things... I may laugh but it's no hard feelings to the driver. If someone laughs at me for something I'm into, I give them a big thumbs up and move along. Or laugh with 'em. There should be more shared laughing nowadays :)

    you know, it's funny that I think the same way when I see a DoubleCab Short Bed like yours. like it got rear ended by a semi. what's the point in buying a truck when the bed is too small to be usable? why didn't you just buy a 4Runner? :D
