Are you sure he's not into that. Ijs.

LOL

There is a reason they built an rei out there, and not in Deerfield. Lol

You hear they are putting one of those Amazon stores in that shopping center?
They could be! I know there was a larger open store in that complex. I'm really excited we're getting a Sprouts market just down the street from there (across from the Home Depot on Glades, in the same shopping center as the Old Navy). Sprouts has great steaks!

I replaced the stock side lights with led . Improved the looks and definitely will translate to a better overall driving experience.

And it adds 6.23 hp per side.

Yep. Gotta account for electron drag.
Calculations are simplified by ignoring the drag coefficient. However this results in calculations that look good in marketing materials, but are not representative of real world conditions. And this isn't even accounting for the excess load caused by the increase in chicks being attracted to the new chick magnet truck.

I got the Tremor package so when I install smoke turn signals and marker lights the vehicles suspension won't bottom out. It also will have increased travel when I am fleeing from the gf when she sees all the chicks attracted to my high horsepower (theoretically) truck.

But, what happens when you put the truck into reverse ?
I have heard that when you do, it causes the lapristrocisel gearing in the transmission to go into a pause state, which will then incur the reversal of the main planitarial gear.
This would seem to negate any hp gains, thus allowing your GF to easily catch up to you on her roller skates....

No, the HFK's are only installed on trucks that are in the southern hemisphere.
Here in the northern hemisphere, we only have the Lapristrocisel gearing.

That's because they can't change the Coriolis effect clockwise rotation. ?
