1 year agoI remember when a 6 foot bed was considered “wimpy”-- not a work truck. Now they all have them. It’s weird that trucks weight 8k pounds now. They haul more stuff, though. You used to have to modify a truck to tow more, with bigger brakes, and maybe a turbo. Campers sure are big now. ATVs are all side-by-sides now, so they’re almost as big as a car. So maybe rich people need bigger trucks for their bigger toys, but I think the chicken came before the egg.
That’s true, Dale never died. He was kidnapped by the USDA because he stole a bunch of GMO seeds from Monsanto. They were seeds for a special type of potato that contains nicotine. I heard they took him to that big underwater dome off the coast of British Columbia, and faked his death.
