@Ash78: 49 CFR Part 581, but it only applies to passenger cars, SUVs and pick-ups are exempt ... including the obviously non off road passenger like car ones.

@danio3834: very true ... lets just say that I knew this guy ... let's call him Chris ... and when Chris was young and stupid he did dumb shit ... like fill a pumpkin with a couple of gallons of gasoline on the hopes that it would explode in movie like awesomeness.
