What's what I am saying ... the used market is still too hot. This will not maintain going forward. Most of the country won't be buying 100k behemoths new anymore that the .gov money dried up. As far as I can tell you are :wrong: about that. .gov money has long dried up and people are dick swinging...

its by design :lolol: I had someone riding with me who was visibly beginning to have a panic attack as we sat there and swayed. When I explained that the bridge needed to flex and, if it was too rigid it would fall into the river, it didn't seem to do any good to alleviate the fears. I think deep d...

It's not uncommon to be stuck on the Mississippi river bridge here in BR. You'll just be shaking up and down the whole time sitting there. FUCCKKKKK that :shock: Its a great time to inspect those large steel expansion plate joints... and the low railing keeping you from the large river below. :neek:

I'm at 6.5 years of GMC Canyon ownership. I'll probably keep my next DD as long, so depreciation isn't a concern. It will be what it will be.

Interesting commentary on the bridge here. Pretty wild stuff, did they find anyone that was lost in the water? Is it actually true that the US hasn’t built any major bridges in decades or is that just :fax: stuff? " :fax: " This beauty was built in 2010: https://www.tylin.com/sites/defaul...
