You'll see some of it eventually because of the good old trickle down effect.

Where do I get an application for "test driver"? That would be sweeter than sweet to run 100mph in the desert in a pickup

Like said above though, just something else I cant afford...Nice truck though.

So just for the record, the driving in those videos......leave it to the professionals. Advice from personal experience.

That will buff right out.

Is that a flat dirt road where it got away from you?

Yes, it was flat, we were going around a corner and the back end came around. We slid up into one of those small enbankments along the side of the road and it flipped us over twice. We were going about 35mph. We all walked away with only minor cuts.
