The hitch cover is the least bad part, and I include the truck itself in that evaluation.

What kinda loving drill for a runaway gun is that?
We were always taught to break the belt, don't touch the charging handle.

But yeah the loving trigger module falling off is a hefty no thank you from me.

The best customization of a veteran license plate

No stranger to this joke

Seen this one a few times, and I love that it made it through the DMV's system.

Can't find the photo, but there's a dude who drives a green Fiat 500 with vanity plate TOR2GA and a giant decal across the back window reading AR15ONA and several other bumper stickers in Spanish supporting Latinx causes. Gun people are often so cringey, but I like that guy's style.

I'm talking about the physical shape of the new Chevy/GMC trucks, regardless of suspension.

This is a factory-height 1500. Front end visibility is atrocious.

As noted, they have the trigger group pins removed already, and did this on purpose. The charging handle pull is to free the trigger group.

One of the current trends with idiots and trucks is to lower the rear suspension while keeping the front where it was or raising it a little. This makes it look like a Baja truck and like it's going faster. But it manages to make the drivers view even loving worse.

I don't know about you guys but I absolutely love bouncing off the rear stops when accelerating and I sure to love the heady rush of the front end washing out wildly whenever under moderate braking.

I mean they do kinda squat down on their rear suspension when accelerating, but picture above is an incredibly sad approximation of the real thing

I hate seeing those dumb rear end trucks around my area. Besides the fact they are almost exclusively driven by upper middle class white kids who don't work on the family orchard (that's for illegals to them). Almost none of them have the proficiency to be driving the loving thing; we have some idiot wreck a few times a week.

They also irritate me because they pretend they are farmers, and rock that farmer chic, but don't do poo poo.

when somebody is talking to me irl about farmers, I ask them to distinguish between "farmowner" and "farm laborer" because I grew up around that exact same vibe you're talking about

I work with some of those types and they put up all of this pro-farmer bs* and claim that no-one else works as hard as them while they sit around supervising or napping where they think they can't be seen.

There's a story a goon in here I believe had about a horse seeing a bunch of ants and dying of fright.
