hahah this little truck is fun! I never owned a truck before so it was fun firing it up for the first time and jumping the curb! its a lot different than my stratus with ground effects that is like 6 inches from the ground

That's funny, I'd slam it super low, or make it a pre-runner, you just can't leave these things stock!!!!
