What a shame about todays youth.  This is a perfect example of how lazy they are.  At least they could have done the job properly and put it on it's roof.  What a bunch of half-@ssers.  :grinyes: :grinno:

But seriously, I would be extremely mad if I found my car like this.

Must not be any farms up there for them to go cow tipping!  OMG...that's really sad (I'd be really angry if it were mine).  For you Ram owners out there...have you ever pulled up besides one of these cars....even the minis??  OMG...you could open your door and step out onto their roof!  I don't think I could feel safe in those things.

Yeah if your looking at the car from a safety point, than just think of it as a coffin on wheels.......

As for the 1/4 mile, I couldnt find a place that has actually tested one.....but I did find a 0-60 time for it....17 seconds  :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: Ohh and its speed limited to 85 MPH....but it does get 58 MPG in the city....so thats a plus side. That may sound good but lets see anaylize the it, you would have to sacrifice your dignity, acceleration, heteosexuality, and safetyness all to get 58 MPG....

Some of you  may not agree with what I'm about to say. But some of it is true. A survey was just done here my home state of CA. There was a survey that they did  that overall, close to 50 percent of 8th  graders were failing school. We have a large sector of bi lingual in our state.  Not every kid is bad. So let me make that clear. But the point is that if a kid has a bad outlook on life, then that student, has some issues that need to be dealt with. This is what causes random vandalism. It is unfortunate that the few can ruin the good for the all. Pushing cars over,  only shows that there are individuals with a bad morale and too much time on their hands.
