Ha ha, it looks like the 4-wheelin' girls are goofier than the guys. In some pics it just looks dangerous to be hangin' off those things!

Indeed, but not just women. You get women like this:

I'm going to order three more before lunch. I'll see if I can fit a couple more on the back bumper, and maybe attach some to the sliders.

Why aren't more stinger manufacturers advertising like this?

Oh that would be hysterical. You get stingers all over your rig and I'll get a bunch of ladies lined up to hang off em!

.... more stinger usage!



We call these "Stupid Truck Tricks"


Is Nic working hard or hardly working on Tippy?


Balance is key!


I think my kid sister would rather be a hood ornament/stinger accessory, than ride IN the truck


Ok /thread hijack!

I would totally do this just for the photo-op, but I don't think my rig would make it to Colorado.

It would be hilarious, though, to make the drive with all of those stingers attached. The giant Toyota porcupine rolling down the interstate at 75 mph.

An excellent story for the grandkids.

the point behind them was if you flip forward it prevents the fall and dosent up your core support and all that good stuff. Others say its good to sit on when working on your engine

personally i think they look preety cool and would get one, but only if they arnt too huge and too far above the hood.
and to help with rolls and your hood being caved in on the engine too.

53% of all percentages are made up.

I propose we make Molly Whomping a new national sport. I'm game!

AWSOME PICS! LOL!

I know two guys that have flopped in the past 2 weeks and each have a stinger and the radiator support and hood stayed intact because of it...however, I flopped this past weekend without one and now my rad support is bent and I had to remove the fan shroud to avoid having the fan rub the shroud the rest of the day.

I smell a Photoshop opportunity to put one on a stinger.

On second thought, I guess a twenty hour drive is not too long a trip for a good Mollywhomping session, though I'd probably be more inclined to visit when there's snow to play in.
