    The guy next door (a renter) just used a string trimmer to
    mow his whole yard. He also doesn't pay for trash pickup.
    He's got old tires by the side of the house.
    I'm hoping the landlord evicts them soon.

    Three wheel steering (well, four, technically, I guess).

    The first pothole they hit - here is what will happen;
    the cart flips up, violently,
    breaks off the muffler and bumper,
    possibly breaking the dude's leg,
    the sudden drop of the rear of the vehicle would cause the hatch to slam down on the dude's noggin,
    breaking the window and possibly the dude's neck.

    Some people's kid's....

    ^^^ schitt man, whenever I'm out on the road, I think I'm gonna get a contact and pop pos, with the way things are around here these days. that or hanging out in a nice breeze in my backyard with my no-jobbed, grown-up at home neighbor, stepping out every hour. Nothin' against it or those who partake, but the citizenry around here are taking liberties with the possession law. Get fluffy, drive around, play on your phone, yay...

    That's why you gotta test it first by revving up to 5k in neutral, and dropping it into D.

    Favorite person should be in the back seat or truck bed to observe result.

    Trust me I know what if feels like to have a driveshaft come apart at the U-joint bouncing on the pavement and slamming into the floor board. You cannot make it stop fast enough, it fact you cannot stop it at all....

    That phone call to the parents from the Texaco was bad.
