    It's funny how you catch on to those kinds of things. There is a guy on my block with and older suburban, and anytime I see him ahead of me I cringe. I will take alternate routes in order to not be stuck behind him.

    On the flip side, when I was working in Germantown for about 6 months straight, there was a guy with a black sedan who was an absolute psychomaniac that I would run across some mornings. This guy would get a half a car length ahead of you and just start moving over and dare you to hit him. Sometimes I wish I had the balls to just lay on the horn and let him hit me.

    I know what you mean. I had that problem before and made sure I left a bit earlier for work just to avoid them.

    Your sliders aren't just for rock crawling. You'll be glad you have kick-outs.

    I told the wife I was thinking about taking the sliders off. She said, " how I'm supposed to get in the truck?"

    I was driving a Tacoma at the time. No armor, unfortunately.

    It's funny how much better they function as a step than most people say they will. When mine were off this summer, everyone who rode in the 4Runner commented about it.

    You're supposed to swap the air in your tires from summer air to winter air.
