    Because my truck has this great new thing called windows.

    I'll let you guess what the shocks do. Hint: They're from a 1998 Dodge RAM 2500

    Remember how I said we almost killed someone with my leafspring Ballista?

    My Physics teacher then went on to ban all car suspension in future projects because of us. So obviously, the angsty teenagers we were, bolted truck shocks to the side of our next Physics project to piss him off.

    You don't wheel hard enough, but your guys terrain over on the east is harder on body panels than drivetrain and suspension. Y'all don't have enough traction and hard surfaces to break metal haha

    I'm shocked.

    That gas line routing makes me upset.
