    Mr/Ms/Mrs truck driver was wrong. They had committed to the left turn lane and had crossed a solid line to change lanes. Regardless of how much space was there (and DrinkLiftGamble states very well the reason for that) there is no standard (at least in Texas) of the MAX space between vehicles. Truck driver was wrong

    Nothing illegal about what see did. However, she is a idiot. She has the right to remain stupid.

    Could have? Yes. But those spare tires make for a really good barrier between a bullet round and the vehicle occupants. Excellent protection for the head and chest areas. Raise the CG? Yup, but not enough to be of any significance considering the trade off. Let's see, which would be better? Lower center of gravity or

    I don't think this is limited to White straight males. You could just as easily include White straight females as well.

    Low speed stability, not necessarily handling, is more a result of tire width.

    Don't need a high top end speed. You can't out run a radio.

    Yeah, reality sucks. Doesn't it? Much better to bury our heads in the sand.

    Nice idea, but there are some who don't drink. Health, religious or recovery issues. May want to warn your guest before and provide a non-alcohol alternative.

These folks, http://www.aev-conversions.com/ do make a compete conversion kit and if it's installed at a Jeep dealer does

    What’s your point? Or do you have a point at all?

    I wonder if the liquor store in the background contributed?

    He's driving a BMW. Wouldn't expect anything less.

    A car for seniors with a second career as pimps. Fuzzy pink dice optional.

    Don’t feel sorry. Do something.

    Having no experience with most of these I’m at a loss to comment. Until the 2 1/2 ton was mentioned. I have experience with those. Lots of experience. Driving one up or down a mountain road on the autobahn while pulling a load that almost outweighs the truck is a experience not worth repeating. They’re not any better

    ...provided they aren’t already preoccupied with their phone.

    Women being underrepresented in motor sports is a very broad statement. Obviously the names Ashley, Courtney or Brittany Force are not familiar names. Nor is Danica Patrick. Women are present. It depends on what form of motor sports and the geographic area you’re speaking about. Women are underrepresented in a lot, if

    As a retired disabled veteran I couldn't disagree more. Thank you doesn't pay my bills or put food on the table. You're right about it being more for themselves. That's what makes it meaningless.
