    Aww....don't you want to have offers of bottles of water by guys banging on your windows at every traffic light on a hot day?! I guess I can give them credit ...they were trying to work....and make an HONEST $$.
    Only time I ever had somebody try to break into my truck was in NorthEast Philly....near the Navy warehouse if I recall when at a shopping center in broad daylight...
    In the 5 minutes it took to get a store manager to get to the back of the store to open a loading dock, two rather large gentlemen with...er...interesting hair, and crowbars, crossed the street from a car wash(kinda funny actually) and tried to break a lock off the back of my trailer...
    When I saw them, and yelled, they were just like "nothin goin' on here...no troubles we be on our way"....
    Thinking back...should have let them break in...then shut the doors..lol...taken them back to Maine and let them out...(i have never seen a full " fro" in maine....lol)had maybe the last 8 pallets of a 3 stop delivery of Poland spring water...

    Yeah that's a great story. ^^^ :lol::lol:

    Ever wander where the guys selling soft pretzels or flowers wash there hands after they use the bathroom when they stand on the street all day? hummmm :nonod:

    Where are the soft pretzels stored you are buying? They are behind a bush or on the ground near a dumpster. Ugh just nasty.

    Oh and the old Veterans stadium where the Eagles and Phillies played used to have its own Court and Jail in it. That's how bad Philly is, it's a real dump.

    Street pretzels sound like an adventure. Like playing roulette with hepatitis a stomach virus and a tasty snack. You are guaranteed to win at least two of three. This explains why my parents never took me and my sister there when we lived nearby.

    Well after 3 weeks with mine in, I can say I love it. Got used to it after a few days and now I wouldn't go back unless I lost an arm. Although parking maneuvers are still tricky.

    So with 225/45/15 R-comps, the steering will really be a pain if you spend a lot of time parking... All I needed to know.

    Who cares if it's hard to turn and park. That's not why you do this mod. This mod helps you "feel" the road when you drive in the twisties.

    Dick the free added bonus is you will get arms bigger then the pencils you have now. :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:
