That bumper is eye level with me. He could have probably decapitated me if he reversed with enough determination.

It's hard out there for small car people when everyone else is in an arms race to be as big as possible.

Maintenance on those things is such a pain. I'm constantly kicking around a milk crate so that I can see into the engine bay. very annoying.

I grew up on a farm around square body Chevrolets and those things were great to work on. They had the power to tow, the bed to haul, but they weren't so big that you needed uppies to maintain them. I saw a square body at a car show last year and I was pretty surprised at how small it was compared to today's trucks.
