It's likely that the truck just had it's lift installed and he hadn't got his oversize tires yet. I drove my Jeep for a couple of days like that.

Missouri is just like that. To many people living on mile long gravel roads right next to new subdivisions.

I figured it out when we were leaving, I would see these huge dust clouds of the side of the highway and a car caked in dirt and dust just cruising.

I'm sure this has been posted but didn't feel like going back 80 pages. Just thought it was funny. In Toronto the big thing is Honda EG and EK coupes ( still ). Go to the local Tim hortons on any given night and you shall hear lawn mowers galore as they all discuss their new exhaust tips and 15 inch rims.
