Agreed. And having automated controls for breaking would be a magnificent leap forward. Unless the government steps in to slow down those products there isn't anything to be done.

You can see reform starting in the form of the "Carolina squat" being outlawed in a lot of states to help alleviate some of that pain.

I already think that stock F450s and Ram 3500s shouldn't be road legal, let alone the ones around here with "normal" lift kits.
I've never seen a truck with a proud stance like that, that's disgusting.

So I'm on the Eastern Eastern shore and most of the 3500s, and the f350/f450s are work trucks. They're always hauling shit. But I'm bias because I only commute and don't really go out and about.

Now the ones that I see that are a problem are the new Silverados /Tahoe/suburban and the F150-F250 line up. And especially the older ones that the kids crank up on stilts. Goofy looking trucks.
