I want somebody to hit my '82 F-150! Either end, front or back, it's fine with me! I've got invincible work bumpers on both ends. They ain't gonna hurt nothin a 99 cent can of paint can't fix! I could always use the insurance money though.

I often hope the same would happen to me when a nice expensive luxury car is behind me. I drive a 77 F150 with a 4 inch lift and 35" tires. The rear bumper has a 6 inch drop hitch on it making it the perfect height for a car to impale its radiator on.
All I would have to do is pull forward and see if the car comes home with me

Expensive Trailer

A couple of years ago I was pulling my girfreinds old 78 t-bird home with my 78 f-150 on a four inch lift because her radiator blew. I had to make an unexpected stop doing about 25 to 30 mph and she slammed right into the back of my truck into my drop hitch. Netheir vehicle sustained any damage and no one was hurt. Maybe they should start building vehicles like that again. The bumpers on them old t-birds weigh more than the whole front clip on my 78!!

People who say it can't be done should not interrupt the person doing it.

....Drive a Ford and give your thumb a rest.
Reminds me of the time I pulled into a Borders Book Store with my long WB F550 PSD. Of course I had to use 2 spaces this drunk joker pulls in behind me, thinking he's in a parking space too.
Well you can guess what happened... he ran his ancient Ford LTD
"boat car" up onto my hitch (6" drop) hell he was hung pretty good, and I didn't feel a thing.
He says to me "howauz you gonna get loose boy", I just smiled, replied "Yuze just watch",;-) Climed up into the truck, put her into 4x4 low range shifted to first and mashed on the gas.
Was just like pullin a stump. Just a litte metal crunching sound all I heard. Got out lifted the bumper off the hitch, tossed it on the ground took one look at the old drunk, smiled
Parked my truck went into the store got my books came back out and he was still sittin in his car wondering what happened.
i really hated to inflict injury upon another Ford, but A: he was sloshed, B: he ran into a brand new 2000 F550 Super Duty

If your gonna stroke it, POWER STROKE IT
