Actually Jim the newer CTD's are quite civilized, not nearly as "rough around the edges" as the first gen CTD's are.



I go by the: "If a hammer will get the job done, then bring a sledgehammer" school.



I also need something with enough ***** to occasionally toe the tractor or whatever else my scavenger inner child wants to bring home

thats called the "always carry a BFH principle"



BFH meaning big ******* hammer, of course.

oh and diesel is the way to go, the fam is trading in our ram 1500 4x4 off-road 5.9 mean **** of a truck for a sick *** diesel, they've come a long way from the loud ***, smelly, pure-work truck stereotype that they used to have, they're relatively quiet now.

I had heard of spinners before, just never knew what they were - just seen a guy with a set on MTV cribs and I couldn't believe my eyes - ever heard of inertia???? - and you can get them in 18" rims? I would have thought that was impossible . Just out of interest does anyone know how much would an 18" spinner rim weigh? I still can't believe it

They weigh alot.



I have seen them on motorcycles. It creates so much force that when they sstop they dont have to put their feet down! Its kinda cool, the spinners keep 'em upright!



-thats the only cool spinner.

I love to accelerate fast at stop lights rather than speed. A lot of people take this as racing and after i get up to the speed limit and stop accelerating and have pulled on them by 4 car lengths at least they feel the need to keep going all the way to 80....
