Cable locks can make theft more difficult. But mostly it’s just that I don’t personally care for a cluttered up look....and Pappawheely is right. I see tons of people in my own little town with brand new high lift jacks, winches, tow straps- and my personal favorite- a shiny new chain hanging off the tow hooks. None of the stuff has ever been used. Jeep guys seem to do it a lot. Don’t get me wrong....they have really cool vehicles and are working hard to make them that way. I just don’t get into that. People love attention and promoting an image through their vehicles appearance. That fine. I don’t want to. My crap is all scratched, bent, broken, or greasy from use and I keep it put away. My truck is cool enough. It’s very “off road” like it sits. I only want stuff that helps me out. I like modifying my vehicles to make them perform better for what I need them to do. For me- anything else is a waste of my money. I have a horrible ribeye steak addiction and it’s expensive. So I need my money for that and not things hanging on my truck that I never use. My buddy described my ride like this.....”I see your truck cruising down the highway and I think- he could going on a long trip, or just decide to drop off the shoulder of the road and drive right up that steep bank and never spin a tire....and maybe do an engine swap once he gets to the top.” He also happens to know I like to carry plenty of tools. But I guess its whatever makes a person happy. I ain’t gotta pay for- or put the crap on their vehicles.....so let em’ have at it. And this has been a serious detour or hijacking of a thread.....luckily it’s my thread and I can take it where I choose!!!!
