    Fiberglass ones are usually about 4ft, and don't flex as much. Usually about the same price, but you get better range with a whip

    I can't believe I didn't see the fitting. I wrapped the strap around the roll cage and the fitting goes into a pressure regulater right there. My manager wasn't upset, he blames the landowner for not repaving the back lot. The owner idk about lol

    Most people tend to like the bro lean it seems. Ive heard it called the bulldog look before
    Yeah it has to be so slight to me that you cant tell at first. Long travel is a different story haha

    Im surprised how accurate the scanguage is on fuel used. tested it twice and was dead on the first time and very close the second. Makes me believe the mpg is correct
