Watch his other "offroading" videos. If I catch any of you doing that stuff out there I'll make sure you're banned from ORTB. :smiley_kill:

Seeing that again is just unbelievable. I swear that guy has too much money to spend on toys and break them.

I want to install that in my SS just so I can listen to it sucking air at WOT. :rotfl:

His "Home Depot" intake works though! :2thumbsup: Gotta love his interior.

Kyle (hardtrailz) has a pic of himself going through water just as deep if not deeper.... with a stock intake. This guy just doesn't know anything but the skinny pedal. I'm sure his "Vipers" are in great condition too.

No PVC needed. :biggrin:

Wouldn't that completely suck all the air out of our cabins? :rotfl: There'd be nothing left for us! :biggrin:

The oxygen deprivation may momentarily convince you that wheeling harmless is a good idea... :yes:



Think of the possibilities! :biggrin:

And here I thought you guys already thought I suffered from enough "oxygen deprivation"... :rotfl:


You know, if he pumped the exhaust into the cabin like he did the air intake and added a few 12v fans blowing towards the intakes, he could probably build himself a turbo in the cargo area!! :cool:

Holy crap. That is disgusting.

But the ARMOR, he will be set

The video where he actually killed the hemi is way less than I have been in many times.

In the comments he talks about how he has to leave the sun roof open or the truck dies on him. Can you imagine how it must have been in that cabin when he actually stalled out the truck?

I musta missed that part while I was laughing so hard!

I can see him stumbling out, gasping for air, a few more brain cells short of a full load... :rotfl:

I am pretty sure I saw it in the comments to the video. There were a LOT of people trashing him in the comments. Some of his other video's are pretty amusing as well. I loved the one where he got stuck in the mud puddle, I was laughing my a$$ off when he slipped and went face first in the mud!

Of course, but to be fair I also saw this video originally after you shared it on Facebook.

Someone should point out that he doesn't need the K&N's inside the cabin. He just needs to make sure he has a good cabin air filter! :thumbsup:

Redundancy my friend, redundancy! Don't need the truck sucking up more stupid than it probably already is! :rotfl:

I can't believe that anybody would put that much effort into messing up their own truck. If he thinks a snorkle kit on the outside looks ugly, all that pvc pipe coming up into the cabin is a lot worse. I wonder how well he has sealed the holes in the floor or if the water splashes in on those water crossings. His rockers may be armoured, but he could still damage one of those pipes under the truck and trash another motor in the water.
