Yikes!

Let’s see…drain the fluids, pull the battery, remove 3 wheels, fasten these things to the hubs, hope you don’t flip too far. Or, maybe, use a lift.

I just see reeeeaaaally bad things coming from this masterpiece.

(And, part of what they use is from Acme. Hmmm…Their stuff never really worked out too well for the coyote, did it?)
