I'm sure regular visits to the chiropractor would be in order. (the aluminum seat doesn’t help much.)

I daily drove my STS2 miata with 670 lbs front and 500 lbs rear, it was definitely a firm ride, but I don't think it was too bad.

double bump just in case they missed the first bump.

because we should just do this because they're way to busy to search so we're gonna make their lives easier.
