Oh Man..... I can't stop laughing at this. Driving in sunny
southern Ohio :) today I saw a bright yellow (way past
canary into sunshine yellow) Ford AEROSTAR minivan
with all the required rice mods: 4-inch tailpipe, slammed,
butt-ugly wing, 12-13" rims with low profile tires, booming-
bass stereo... hehehe and ya know those trim pieces that
GTS makes for keeping the rain out of your driver's/passenger
windows when their cracked? Well, this guy had those but instead
of only coming down about 2" , these suckers only left about an 8-by-8
inch area of the side windows visible... Oh my gosh I would have
KILLED to have my camera with me at the time. heheheh ROTFLMAO!!!
I will start keeping my camera in my car and if rice-boy shows up
again I will make the pic available to you all (E-mail of course) if
you want it.... hehehehe BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

Excuse me, I'll just quietly roll on the floor here........

I saw a similarly appearing Chevy Astro van last year on the BQE
(Brooklyn-Queens Expressway) in NY. For background information, that road
is always under construction so it's quite bumpy. This van, which must
have been slammed by cutting the springs, is driving next to me around a
turn when he hits a bump. The rear axle including both rear wheels went
airborne and landed a few inches further towards the outside of the turn.
I was so amused. His ride must have been a jaw-breaking experience
because he was bouncing around significantly.

ROFL. Reminds me of this 6 wheeler we have around here. It's a 94 Chevy
Astro. Yep, you heard right. The guy cut the ass end out of another and
welded it to his. He then threw another axle under it. I heard that he has
somehow hooked it up to have all four back wheels pulling, but I'm not sure.
It is slammed to the ground, has six 4" fart tips out the back, and gold
wire 13" or 14" rims. It only has two seats, the rest is speakers and the
hydraulics system. I could understand seeing something like that in Cali.,
but not here in WV.
