normally i dont get involved or respond to useless threads like this, but since you have specifically centered out "7 foot high pickups" (why you should even care is beyond me) here's my 2 cents. i DO daily drive a 9 foot tall truck, and up here we have some of the most stringent motor vehicle rules you ever saw. my truck went thru a V.I. that even a stocker would have a hard time passing (brakes, susp, steering, you know, stuff a little more important than wiper blades...) i CAN legally drive it anywhere, and i guarentee it is stronger and way more safer than your "stock only" boring-ness. besides being able to take it places you can only dream about, every single day i take it out, i have people constantly talking about it to me, and you would not belive how many people take pictures or videos of it, everybody ALWAYS wants to take it for a spin, this something that you will prob never experiance driving your stock whipper-snipper. as mentioned, you BORING world is a place i would'nt ever want to visit, you need to take a valium and just mellow out. vehicles are an extension of people. remind me to never fly on 185 heavy, i'm high enough off the ground in my 1985 K30 heavy...
