Sure you can.

Some of the new LSUV's are built with a unitized body, and don't have a real frame at all. They're just big cars pretending to be trucks. Prang one and it's toast. > and most > people don't need a Ford F250, they simply have to figure out that driving a > big empty pickup is a sign of stupidity, not coolness. For so many people, particularly insecure men, driving the biggest, most powerful thing on the planet seems to be some sort of sign of "masculinity". Whether it be a Big Ass Truck or a hotrodded Mustang, or even a big motorcycle with loud pipes. In fact there's a term for them. They're called PEV's. That's "Penis Enhancement Vehicles". To prop up the egos of insecure men who are unsure of their own factory original equipment. Alan Petrillo -- Aviation is more than a hobby. It is more than a job. It is more than a career.
