Makes me wonder how they can stand to ride in a car, a CAR higher off the ground than a 4x4, rides rougher than a 4x4, looks completely retarded, but, they think they look cool. Is it any wonder why cool and fool rhyme? There`s this one clown in town with early 80`s monte carlo that`s sitting so high off the ground my 8 year old nephew could walk under it without hitting his head. When I see it I can`t help but bust a gut laughing.
And to think, these cars came with low compression choked up 305`s with super high gears. The taller the wheel and tire the higher it makes the ratio, making the engine work twice as hard to keep the vehicle moving at cruise RPM. There wearing the drive train out in half the time and don`t even realize it. All in the name of looking cool.

What is even funnier is the shack where they park it at night, and when they have to pull away from a traffic light everyone has to jump out to push it cause those big tires and tall gears yaknow
