    I don't understand the whole leaving your tow hook hanging out thing in the first place.....to me it's like having your shorts sticking up out of your pants.

    And why only in the front? Why not one in the back too?

    Unless you're on a racetrack....that is.

    Same with driving in clear weather with your fog lites on - makes you look like you're too dumb to figure out how to turn them off.

    Word association, being lead around by the nose. Or is that to keep said individual from rooting under the fence.

    I've heard spark plugs called "firing pins", but other than that - they've always just been spark plugs, or plugs....

    YW for the vid, I thought it was funny too - and to the point! I also am not a rap music fan.....

    Firing Pins bring on an entirely different connotation for me. Where was the origin of the firing pin term, like nationality?

    Tow Hooks, I call the theft enablers, so I suppose having them as strictly decorative might be the goal of the aluminum ones. I too like the smooth look, check out my SMOG-2 in the Garage.

    :cornut: Wikipedia says "sometimes in British English called a 'sparking plug.'"
    11B 'Queen of Battle', Follow Me! (from War Between the States Infantry Colonel) I'll give $1000 if you can find a cavalry man who died with his boots on!

    Jason, didn't all cavalry troops, who died in battle, die with their boots on? I have seen a situation where a guy was blown completely out of his laced up boots, leaving the boots intact, but that is all that was intact:eek6:
