Repeat sentiment: I wish options for our own pickups developed such that the "3 fold down sides" style of box -like the truck pictured- was available.

A DGC forum might have actual product reports.

Glad your wife wasn't hurt worse too. I wonder if she was hit by a texter. This happened to my mom and a school chum. I often leave room ahead of me at red lights. I've deluded myself into thinking that I'll have the presence of mind to turn out of the lane if I see someone bearing down on me

"Check your windage". Goes to being blown off target "Cobwebs become cables". Goes to sloppy or bad habits/practices.

My brother had a 1991 Chevrolet Lumina Eurosport 3.1 which must've been a base model. It had studs and lug nuts which were 4" long; obviously to accommodate any future alloy wheel Chevy might think of. They were rusty. Running the nuts along the unnecessary length had to create heat and stress...

What about the General Altimax RT43 tires...everybody's darling? Lots of 18" sizes

Did personal economics (absence of $) drive this selection? No mocking, just asking.

What is a "protest badge"? seriously.

I recall readding that the "S" stood for silicone-the material better ADBVs are made.

Woah! You sound very 'hands on'....a real 'materials guy'. As you go, add the costs of basalt a/o S glass cloth, new leather boots, D30 sheets, bamboo + fiber + epoxy...then compare them to the cost of motorcycle specific footwear. Add in your time and you might find out it's cheaper.

Oh yeah, lower leg injuries. Scraping against vertical surfaces (sides of cars, road debris) Thanks for the education. I heard of bikers' safety gear, sure, but never in the form of underwear. Why do you need the toe socks if you're wearing appropriate boots? Another layer of goodness...

Road Rash Resistant Clothing...is is listed as such or do you look under "UHMWPE/HTTP"? So the white things essentially lengthen the toe socks (go up your legs more)? What's the benefit of that? The 'knife resistance' is a nice bonus.

Flashing me back to when I didn't have a television (1974-1996). It was my 'anti-furniture' phase.

Indeed. It had one foot-long rust spot ahead of the LR wheel well, in the "dog leg" zone. He had it fixed and they did a perfect job.

A pal bought a 2012 Nissan Xterra from a neighbor. It's the bright blue color and still shines as it was garage kept. Odo: ~75k VIN: 5N1AN0NW1CC512061 We'd like to do fluid changes on this vehicle but I can't locate any info. The worst part of my search so far is that Nissan owners clubs focus...

I never heard an insurance report/body shop joke before.

Sorry for your loss of vehicle. Should it be totaled, please get back to us with the amount your insurance company offered.

Does anybody know why something is called an "urban legend"? Didn't rural locations have to listen to the same stuff? Why not just legend, myth, fabrication or mistaken notion?

Painting a vehicle with a roller? That's a first for me.

Hmmm...Spider tires only come in sets of eight.
