I had some redneck in a jacked up F150 who thought he could go as fast as I could. He could even break a "ton".
I love these people. They put tires that are twice as big on thier trucks, and then think it is just as fast as always. Unfortunately, physics is something thier brain cannot comprehend. So they have to floor it to just start moving. Bet those tires really help thier truck that has probably never seen a dirt road in its life.

I've had a couple of these in the past couple weeks here in Savannah. My favorite though was the last model 6 cyl Camaro who thought he could beat me off the line. Dude sounded like he was going to blow his engine, and I was keeping under 4500 rpm!
How much is that costing you, ryanschram, and how hard is it to do? That's the one thing I kinda regret not having the factory do.
Well it's a pain in the ___. But I think it will be worth it. I'm doing a Joey mod for someone else and getting the stuff as an informal payment as he's completely gutting his interior.
After cutting the hell out of my hands, I realized that in order to get the C pillars off in any sort of a timely manner, you need to cut the retaining straps.
I don't really have any idea how much it would cost to get the parts new except that unless you got them from your local dealer, you would have to pay oversize freight for the headliner itself.
Thanks! I wanted to get some pics with my stock winter wheels since at the end of the season I may be getting them powdercoated black or a gun metal gray if that's possible.
I used a coin-operated wash thingy for the very first time since no water was coming out of the hose at home (I think the water inside is frozen!)
It was kinda fun, but it didn't get as clean as when I handwash. Not sure what kind of soap they use, but the power wash got most of the icky post-snow grime off. I QD'ed a bit afterwards and dried with Hydro. Looks much better than before but I'll be happy when I can do a proper detail - want to clay again and get some Prima Amigo for the roof.
