Mine is like 5 3/4 or something, yours is bigger. Mine holds air though.

I have drug it climbing up clay walls and stuff, it doesn't bother me unless I don't make it up the wall all the way. Then I have to back down. Oh well, I like it.

It's definetly a "don't tailgate me, cuz your forehead will be the first thing that hits it" kind of bumper.

ain't that the truth.. problem with being so tall like my dad said is, the car will go under the truck lifting it up and spinning me around/flipping the truck

Yes but, when I run out of air I just let the compressor fill it back up.

In all honesty, I wanted a Powertank, but I am too cheap.

Get a drop hitch for when you're on the road. That'll show you who's going to win in a rear ender.

You should slop a little bit of lime green paint on it and put some radioactive stickers on it and see what happens.

And then put a Flexfuel emblem on the tailgate. lol
