Erik then drives away home in his lifted 1993 Chevy Silverado pickup (equipped with big-rig muffler mod) to his family farm in Hatton thinking how great it will be to finally feel all technologically advanced with his new Pride Card.

lmao! Spot. ON.

Speaking of funny looking lifted trucks, anybody ever see that Ford F-150 with the HUGE "BIG SHOW" stickers on both sides driving around town? Cracks me up every time I see that thing.

Oh, if you only heard my friend Andy P. (and even Andy S.) do his impression of a MN news reporter on the 6 o'clock news (neeuuuuuuuuuuuws). Absolutely hilarious! I even have a recording of him doing the impression on video. I'll see if he'll allow me to post it.

How did he manage to pull off that park job?!?

Off topic but seeing that pic reminds me of a few weeks ago...Someone at the airport left a HUGE dent in my drivers side door. From the looks of the dent it looks like it was a truck. I really just wish people weren't so stupid and had some respect, at least hold your freakin' door when you get out of your car, geez. The dent looks terrible too...but I can't really repair it because it was damaged so much, paint peeled off and everything...

MAybe thats the show...Watching him trying to park it?

Some how he will find that his truck is posted on these forums. He will think that everybody here loves his truck so much and will feel the need to add huge 6 inch exhaust stacks and not 1 but 2 CB radio antennas just behind the cab. I wouldnt be surpirsed if some train horns on his wish list. Whats with people adding these huge nutsacks hanging form there hitch reciever. Everytime I drive behind one it makes me feel inadequate.

UAL747400 · May 11th, 2008, 14:05

Haha Jason, that just cracks me up!

Anyone see the f-150 that says "rice hunter" on the back window? Too bad my oldsmobile granny car would wipe the floor with that truck in every sense of the word speed. It's probably better off road too!

Here we go with the good old off topic car talk! Why do so many people think trucks are fast? They're only good for one thing, hauling and towing, and now they're really not even good at that. They accelerate slowly, stop like crap, turn like crap, get stuck off road like, well, crap. Why would you want to daily drive one of these things???? I digress, I already have my theory.

ChadW346 · May 12th, 2008, 01:29

LMAO what's so awesome about that picture is that I actually also snapped one of that truck on the same day, I'm assuming, since he's in the exact same spot. Hilarious.

Oh, and I have seen that "Rice Hunter" truck too. There are some other ridiculous ones all around town, too. We should start a UND JC chronicle of these things. I could add one driven by this kid I work with when I get the chance to take a picture of it.

AngelFuree · May 12th, 2008, 04:37

Haha, you guys are on to something. I might upload a pic as well.

Micaoct · May 12th, 2008, 23:36

Anybody see people refueling their cars with their engine running???? That worries me. This is the first place I've seen it happen.

YEAH WTF

i have been with people and im like uhhh.... im gonna go stand way over here while you do that.

Stinger · May 14th, 2008, 01:59

Haha funny stuff.....I actually fill up the tank with the engine running when it gets colder than probably 0 degrees or so outside. I'm just not worried about anything exploding.

Gets pretty funny when my sister is in the same car---she freaks out and turns the engine off herself. I don't know, maybe that's why I do it-just to scare her.

Well, if I had such a nice truck like that I'd be worried about dents too!

(ugh.... "Big Show"? WTF IS THAT?!)

back to the topic, if you guys are interested, theres a facebook group "No Thanks, UND Pride Card" that has all the latest info about this nonsense.

WDAZ actually did a somewhat decent report on the issue, and Jace will be very glad to see the typical middle aged nodak woman from the finances office stumbling and stammering on camera finally.
