God. Damn.

Living in Michigan the dick measuring via bad ass truck is so absurd.

Also, I think Americans want to be nationalistic when it comes to cars... our manufacturing just gets sent everywhere else. Everybody just believes it isn't and they're happy to but some Chevy that was made in America.

Haha man where are you? West side or Detroit (I forget)? I'm literally two miles from the plants in Flint right now...the levels of truckery are nuts. And I work in Jackson, which is straight-up redneck. I'm sure it's no better for you, anyway. I do take great delight in squeezing my tiny Honda between two massive pickups in parking lots, though.

in grand rapids.
i moved here from saginaw and a ton of my family have worked for gm in the past so i get a lot of shit for my car choices.
but yeah -- the surrounding countryside around here is much like the surrounding countryside of every other michigan city: everybody loves hunting and working on trucks so their trucks all have hanging nuts and shit.

You guys would fit right in down here.

But we don't have Chevs, so you'd have to get used to Hiluxes and Patrols everywhere.

Get a real 4WD and go do some mud/rock work if you're in the forest a lot.

Agreed. I mean sure I loved my Subaru WRX, but it wasn't very good off the pavement beyond finely graded dirt roads. Believe you me, I tried.

If you're planning on doing anything offroad, which opens up huge hiking opportunities, get a real 4WD and start playing Blaster Master IRL.

Fucking werd.
