I suspect I'm gonna feel like an idiot once its explained.

Craig
You are more likely to feel that way after you've put one on your truck, and you are standing around in a parking lot waiting for the tailgate to drop.

But at least you get to admire that sweet blue while you age. :sunglasses:

Best of luck with the truck!

We of the resistance are just trying to save you from a long road that leads to despair.....
You buy a damper and install it.
Between one and two weeks your arm muscles start to atrophy.
By the end of week three, you have a malady known as "stick arms".
Your better half dosen't want to be seen in public with you, so your nights out consist of McDonalds drive thru's and drive in movies, all in the dark where the public won't see you.
You have to get a job requiring no physical lifting using your arms due to lack of strength.
You end up at a toilet paper manufacturing plant as a quality control inspector whose job is taking every 100th roll and counting the sheets to assure quality.
All this from buying a damper....
Your theory is bunk and I'll tell you why. Have you noticed that the dancing banana has arms like a chicken? ? He's the leader of the damper resistance and has the smallest arms (and legs) on R5G. Having a damper will give you a workout every time you close it. How do you think I got this buff? :muscle:?

Ok, maybe the damper didn't give me 100% of this buff body. But I could send my trainers over to you if you like? :muscle: ?

You know Craig, I was thinking the same of you. :)

BTW, I knew that Dave, the Grand Poobah of dampers would pull you into the cool kids club. If you've learned one thing, that's never listen to the nasayers like old @RANGER PRIDE . He was dropped on his head as a child, and hasn't had a straight thought since. But, he's our Ranger Pride, and we will take care of him any way we can. Of course we mainly just go along with what ever he says. That usually works if the Doctor has all of his medications up to date.

Here's a picture of our friend RP when he was a kid.

Here he is after he bulked up. Just imagine how buff he would be if he only used the resistance of the tailgate damper during his work outs.

Don't do it, Craig! You cannot trust a guy (@AzScorpion) that thinks chickens have arms. Be very careful on this forum, Dave possesses the same hypnotic skills as Kaa.

Be smart, and become a member of the resistance. Our numbers grow every day.

AL, since when do bananas have arm & legs? :facepalm:

See what NOT having a damper does to you Craig. They're hallucinating now. :crazy::crazy:
