Because women think humvee's make them invincible..so they're free to drive; steering with their knee, talking on the phone and putting on makeup

i think i want to hug Driftster right now because i seriously loved that post.

if i could count the number of times i have almost gotten hit by a woman in a big SUV, i'd be at a high number. one time a girl almost caused an accident with me, then she flicked me off. luckily my friends and i have a bunch of hot sauce packets from taco bell which we let loose on her windsheild.

hell i witnessed an accident last week. it was two girls, from their late teens to early twenties, driving a large SUV, who turned left on a red left arrow and hit a guy. it was a pretty bad wreck too.

Damn.. that is so cool. You could start a war with that thing.

There are so many things you could do..

You could hunt and not even bring a gun. Just run the damn things over.

Just.. don't give one to Dick Cheney.

Personally, I'd mow down James Blunt in one of these, the hippies can wait.

Little kids piss me off so much. But only the brats. I mean, I won't kill them. I'll just scare them.

Hmm, I guess I couldn't really run them over then. Aw hell, I'll just drive after them down the street. I'll save the running over for the hippies. They have no purpose. I might as well run over weeds. At least those little children might have futures.

hippies complain about everything, yet they have no solutions and they never take any steps to be proactive.

all they do is smoke weed, which in itself isn't a bad thing, but when thats your whole life, you turn into a hippie. you think these stupid things, and if you become permastoned, you started believing these things. if you ever go back on some of the things you thought when you were high, you think, "man, that was just simply a dumb idea". they don't however, so these stupid thoughts become a reality to them.

thats why i don't like hippies.

thats why i want to ride in it with you when you run over some hippies.

It can make friends out of enemies, and bring a general calm to an escalated occasion..

But when used in excess one of 2 things can happen.

Like Max said, you become a hippie..

Or you can become a ticking time bomb for aggressive behavior.

BTW....Danika patrick can't drive..

...but...being a woman, even in the faster car..She can't win..

Weed in moderation can be a great thing.

she gives great fellatio, so the governing bodies gave her a faster car...but...being a woman, even in the faster car..She can't win..

Sounds like Drift's got some herbal remedy experience...:cool: As for Danica,
I remember all the fuss they raised last year (Indy) about her "unfair
weight advantage).Guess the other drivers felt threatened.:o

why does she do poses fro FHM? you don't see any male race car drivers doing those things. the fact that she does those makes me loose a lot of respect for her.

seriously, if women want to be equally respected among men, they should start doing things to deserve it.

Too bad this isn't street-legal. And Force Protection won't degrade themselves by producing a civilian version.

There are several other street-legal trucks of similar caliber, for eradicating hippies and making Hummers look prude:

2006 Chevrolet Kodiak C4500 Pickup by Monroe Truck Equipment

those are so pointless, such a big cabin and engine for such a small storage area, at least make the storage area a decent size then it make vague sense
