Where's Dave?Quick trip to visit the FIL and pick up a few things at Home Depot. Saw this spectacular parking job in the curb side pick-up area. He took up three of the available spots and wasn’t even there for curb side pick-up - he was in the store.
Jeeple- pffft

It’s the Wrangler “4xe”, a plug-in hybrid. It is a mall parking lot, so likely the only off-roading he’ll do. I think the ducks on the dash might have messed up his perspective. ?

I think cruising speed may be a bigger factor at the moment this shot. =D
I believe you’re right Chris, there was some back and forth about tailgates and tonneaus, and gas mileage. I can’t recall if was a link to Myth Busters that ended the discussion or if Phil chimed in about some testing that was conducted at Ford and then told a cool back story about breaking trucks, or racing trucks, or some of the cool characters he got to hang out with. ?
As I recall, there was one thread where the Mythbusters footage came into play, and Phil's backstory was in a different thread, where it started off as a response to why the Ford logo is found on the front end of the bed. Part of that backstory was about the testing that you mentioned, where they came to the same conclusion as Mythbusters (only Phil's story pre-dated the MB episode by a couple of decades), but used the "logo in the bed as a means of advertising" cover story to keep the results of their testing from becoming public knowledge and therefore giving them an edge over the competition.
that looks painful brother. was it a knee repair surgery?? tornDrove it, for the first time since this happened, just before Christmas.
Yes torn quadriceps tendon. Almost completely detached from my patella. Needed a full surgical repair. That pic was the morning after surgery.
