While there may have been more capable machines at the Cleetus and Cars Burnout Masters event in Indy, there was nothing that got more attention and looks than this backwards F-150. Thankfully our boys at 1320Video got the video of it before the event and hearing Kyle and Matt laugh and talk about this one is the best. I’m a fan of the backwards mounted bodies like this one and once tried to buy a Buick Grand National that had been used in a Fast and Furious movie where something similar was going on. Unfortunately the insurance folks wouldn’t let the Buick go to someone outside the movie studio or vehicle production group so I couldn’t take it home with me. If I had, I’m sure it would have gotten me pulled over even more than the 22 times that this truck has been pulled over on the road.
Yeah, you heard that right, 22 TIMES! It was originally built in 2004 so it has been around a while and they even use it to pull a boat sometimes. The owner tells Kyle that he’s driven over 3 hours on the highway pulling a pontoon boat with it and you can imagine the amount of attention that gets! The best is when Kyle goes for a ride and then actually drives it. Watch, we promise it is worth it.
I like everything except one thing: he’s not going to drive it because it’s a different time. I’ll say it is, and people need to be reminded about what it means to be an American. They need to be reminded to mind their own business, and that they’re free to do whatever the hell they, or anyone else, wants to do. certainly that is if it’s not causing bodily harm to anyone else, which this doesn’t.
But come on! We need to yank a knot in people’s shorts to get them to wake up to the idea of individual liberty again. Not shrink from it…
I don’t really see how “it’s a different time” has ANTHING to do with driving that thing. Have the traffic laws somehow changed? Give me a break.
