Gassers are/were less about extreme rake and more about weight distribution. well tuned gassers were more or less level, it wasn’t as much a difference in total lift as it was a difference in tire size while maintaining relatively equal ground clearance. they LOOK raked because the front wheels are smaller so the

Using the “well they did something dangerous 50+ years ago so different dangerous activity is okay now” defense is such flawed logic. Cars used to not have seat belts, but it doesn’t also mean it’s okay not to use them now when cars have them. This law is poorly worded but I completely support trying to keep some

If you can’t figure out what the safety implications of not being able to see over the hood are, that’s your defect, not ours.

“We did stupid dangerous shit in the past and managed to survive and therefore we should never ban stupid dangerous shit” isn’t really a coherent argument.

1. Driver visibility.

You need empirical evidence to prove the driver can’t see what’s right in front of him at a stoplight? Or that his headlights are useless at night?

Screams, “I could only afford half of the lift I really wanted”

So, if making death traps was good enough for dad, it is good enough for you?

You look at that and not see a dramatic decrease in forward visibility?

10000% this. Dangerous vehicle modifications need to stop. So do modifications that remove emissions control equipment. Coal rolling lifted pickups are so dangerous to other vehicles on the road, pedestrians, and even themselves. A lot of this stuff its already illegal on a state or federal level (safety inspections,

THANK YOU! Lifting trucks is dangerous to other drivers and should be illegal for public roads. If you want a lifted offroader, trailer it.

(plus I hate how I can’t see around them on the road)

Ban it for safety, and introduce a charge of felony level stupidity for everyone whoever thought that it was a good idea in the first place. Keep that sort of shit for the track and stadium exhibitions, not the public roads.

People may hate the way this looks, but it’s clearly a safety issue. You are putting way less weight over the front tires than the vehicle was designed for. Handling could be dangerously bad depending on how much rake.

I watched a documentary where an AI gave us back Blockbuster Video and a forty-ish Samuel L. Jackson. Also, Brie Larson punched a space ship.

This is blatant misinformation. Here’s the actual quote:

It might as well read “People watch CNN when they feel like their entire reality is experiencing an existential crisis, and watch less when that isn’t the case”.

We’re here talking about shrooms and your (FIRST!!1!) comment is clutching your pearls about losing oil-powered electricity in California.

Spoken like a true regressive.

Re: the last one there, “CNN loses nearly 70% of viewers since Trump left office” I mean, maybe it could be factually true. I never really watched much TV news in the first place, network or otherwise (aside from the odd specific video I was being shown on someone else’s device), but I know I am consuming less news

It wouldn’t actually surprise me if Donnie didn’t even know he had a “blog” (or whatever one wants to call this failed exercise).
