Lol. Yea I don't have one there. But I have a number of peculiar dents and dings from the PO. I don't understand HOW they happened. Theres a BB size ding, perfectly circular, right above the driver side cargo glass, NO other damage around the ding. Its like someone hit it with a center punch.

Mud Rovers are the worst tire ever made.

I'd rather wrap inflated condoms around my rims than run Mud Rovers again.

Ground problem. Does your overhead light flicker? (try with passenger door open)
