I have so many questions and comments.

When you only have three more payments to make on your lift kit.

Thats got to be horrible for the U joints.

Is that better or worse than the Carolina squat/ Tennessee Tilt?

Better, at least in terms of headlights blasting into my skull, and presumable he can see the road in front of him. Handling about the same.

Speaking of, I saw Carolina squatted Silverado - 2010s, I think - here in DFW the other day. Surprised (and sickened) me. Hadn't seen one of those containers of concentrated dumbass in a while.

Got one on my street. It'd be a pretty slick truck if he finished lifting it.

#2 isn't ALWAYS bad...

Just found something worse than bro trucks and mall crawlers. Bro trucks and mall crawlers with off-road LED arrays pointed backwards into the eyes of everyone on the interstate behind them.

I just about successfully resisted the urge to pit maneuver them off the godamned highway and then beat them to death with a coffee mug, but only just.

That photo has been floating around for at least 3 years. Someone that knows Colorado plates - what year does that tag expire?

edit: well I managed to dig up a VIN for it, searching the VIN doesn't show any junkyard or auction listings... maybe he's still spending a grand a year on brakes. VIN decoder I found shows it's a pretty nicely optioned 98 2WD 2500.. with the 8.0 V10. Probably spending that much on brakes because he tows (ordered with the tow package anyway).

There's a whole lot of web sites where you can type in a license plate number to get a value on a trade-in. The one I tried spat out a VIN. :shrug:

A VIN isn't exactly private info, and it's easy enough to get from a license plate. The closest you'll get to any personal info is maybe the county it's registered in.

Alright, some Colorado goon from this guy's county, find the truck confirm that it still has the stickers/signs on it and then ask the dude "why don't you just sell it if the brakes are that lovely"?

Or why do you keep going to the dealer? My front suspension bushings on my car ate poo poo at 40k and I didn’t go back to the dealer and have them put oem poo poo on there again.

Hey can someone slip into the dude's garage at night and take a peek under the hood to see if it's a v10 or what?

Ok guys, I've found his info and I've successfully catfished him. I've tricked him into meeting me at a restaurant, except it's not a real restaurant, it's a building I rented with a bunch of actors inside that I've hired. My plan is he will come inside and order a drink while waiting for his date, but his drink will be drugged. While he's knocked out, I'll install Wilwood disc brakes on his truck so he won't have to keep spending 1000 dollars at the Dodge dealer every year.

You might be saying, Wilwood doesn't make brakes for that truck, and to that I say, hey guys, this video is sponsored by Wilwood who have made custom brakes just for this guy. If you want to get some new brakes for your classic car or truck, head on over to Wilwood brakes and use the code catfish for 15% off any brake kit.
