[quote=""DCIV""]Hmmmm. Maybe I’ve missed the mark, I never thought of Humvee people as redneck. Did I just go full redneck and not even know it?!

Requirement: Occasional yard waste removal, Home Depot trips, and work commute in moderate to heavy snow.

Typical solution: Basic, small to medium SUV or pickup.

Tennessee solution: Demilitarized M998 HMMWV

If that ain't redneck, I don't know what is.
I think about all the things we could have done, all the miracles we could have achieved, if we were all just a little bit better than it turns out we are.

Damn. I’m really in shock...the wife doesn’t even think it’s redneck and she hasn’t been a fan of it.

Don't get me wrong. It's not a bad thing at all. I've said before, I'm a bit jealous.

I guess it’s better than ryan being in denial about a Miata.

I mean I sold it for like 160% of what I paid for it lol. That was a leaky NA with no known maintenance history and about 160k miles iirc. Thing leaked more oil than deepwater horizon.

Wait till you try to find someone to tint that rear hatch lol. My friend had the biggest pain finding a guy. Even the most professional tinters hate doing them.

That's awesome. I can barely get bare long blocks that cheap from self serve junkyards.

I had to trunk monkey the car I got your diffuser off of. Fortunately the trunk trim was gone and I was able to get right at the latch mechanism.

Is your standalone ECU going to be throttle by wire, or old school cable operated?

The rear glass is probably the most difficult thing to tint. Damn near impossible to do it in one piece. A lot of shops strain up refuse to do it or they do it in strips between the defroster lines.
