    I can't understand why I have to keep replacing the rear springs.

    You realize the trailer hitch on the Ford is probably bolted to the back bumper with a couple 3/8" bolts, right?

    It’s either that or it’s the 350lbs hitch made from scrap angle iron that keeps the frame from dragging on the pavement.

    I’d bet good money that the yahoo that took this photo was the guy driving the car and he put it on ticktock or facebook or whatever.

    I’d sure like to see that video of her getting out of the car, now I think that would have been funny.

    Something is not right with this picture. I see one leg down in pants. I see the left arm from shoulder to fingers. There appears to be an elbow or knee by his right shoulder and a right hand on the right butterfly wheel grip. No way his wrist could bend that way if it’s his elbow. And no way that can be his knee without the pants and no signs of being half out of his pants. Hmmmm

  18. You're overthinking this photo. Sure, there are enough AI pics popping up in the popular photo threads but this pic looks legit. I read the h.a.m.b. on the PC where i see big pics as opposed to a shitty little smartphone pic . That bare knee you see is from the blond kid who is actually sitting on the rear wheel. As for the grubby wrist most of us can do that . Thats your vice grip position at 200 mph :D. Is that blond kid chewing on a long piece of wire :oops: ?

    You're right. I have a tendency to overthink things. So I did what @jhansen said and put it up on my big screen. The extra elbow is actually his shoulder and the chin strap is what made it look odd. And even with that explained it still bugged me. That right hand on the wheel isn't the kid behind (who is chewing on wire) but there is no way his hand can be there with his body in the position it is in the photo. And the shadows on the kid don't look right. Yep, there I go over thinking it again. But that's just me.

    I always thought that automatic transmissions were full of black magic...

    Nope it is red magic. And if it gets too low everything turns black and the magic goes away.
