Snapped a pic of this bad boy in Piggly Wiggly parking lot a few minutes ago. The hood scoop is legendary, but what really sets it apart from the competition is the after market battery mount!

Even rednecks are getting into EV’s.

That's a big heavy battery. I hope it's more secure than it looks. It would not fit under the hood and the cables would not reach the bed. That's the only place left he could put it.

It wouldn't surprise me to see something like that in Bedford county.

I figure he stole it out of somebody’s backhoe.

It keeps him from pulling the front wheels off the ground.

That dude is going to kill someone if that thing falls off. Imagine hitting that on a motorcycle.

He might kill himself. He'll be the first one to run over it.

Speaking of motorcycles, has anyone been paying to all the riders that have been killed recently by people in cars and trucks?  Have people forgot to watch out for them?  I worry about my friends that ride them every time I hear about one on the news!

Forgotten implies they ever knew in the first place....

There use to be a policy back years ago that Motorcycles had their headlights on so people in cars and truck would see them better in daylight. Does that policy not exist any longer?

I think so, but all the bikes made in my lifetime do not have an off switch for the headlight. If the bike is running, the headlight is on.

My problem isn't looking out for them as much as it's the jackass on the crotch rocket blowing by me at 120+mph. either in my blind spot, or weaving in and out of traffic to pass. I just about put one in touch with Jesus the other day when he flew by me in the right hand lane and cut in front of me and the car up front decided to put their brakes on and turn, he just about became a new hood ornament on my Dodge Ram 2500 4x4.

Somehow folks need to realize that it only takes an un-fortunate chain of events for them to leave this world and they could suffer a great deal before they do.

I think I beat this one today. Also at the local Piggly Wiggly.

Good thing he did that flatbed mod. There's no way he'd have fit three whole CASES of bottled water and all those boxes of diapers in the original mini van.

Why weld when we’ve got chains?

Thats really something. 

[gary_boom]

I didn’t notice that, I doubt the back brakes work.
