Why are all the pictures covered in white dots?

im still trying to figure out what you mean...

you mean the rain/snow/bullshlt weather weve had???

or???

Well, it looked like your camera lens...but upon closer inspection it looks like my video card is on its way to death, leaving a lot of artifacts as I scroll through a picture. 🙁

So the pics are OK, I am going to go check on BFG RMA process.

yea, no issues with the camera lens.

i really need to do a bit more macro practice though, i noticed i got some decent shots of the b pillar plastic atleast.
 
Pics look fine to me. For godssakes please don't put "dubs" on it. Fsckin' 4WD for christsake. It needs MORE sidewall not less.

http://ohioservers.com/carpics/IMG_0099.jpg (large) those are 20" rims not that you could easily tell because the sidewall on them is pretty large.
It still doesn't make sense to run that kind of setup on a 4x4. It can't handle for sh!t no matter what you put on it and increasing unsprung weight and moving the rotational weight outward is a recipe for disaster. When I see bling-bling wheels I think the car must have a stupid and poorly-endowed owner ("Hi, my SUV can't handle or brake for sh!t and I just spent thousands to make it handle and brake even worse! But damn, don't I look cool!").

Escalades have 22's as an option 😉

yea i know exactly what you are referring to, and i believe that the way the wheel is (sorta closed) is one reason it looks so small.

It's not even his vehicle. He probably has no say in what kind of wheels go on it anyway.

The day I envy someone with an SUV will be a cold day in hell.
I don't see how owning a SUV correlates to socio-economic class what-so-ever.

True.

i dont either, its a 43k vehicle... there are a LOT of vehicles that cost 40k+...

Your badge stroking is almost as annoying as aidanjm's gay trolling.

i havent done nearly as bad as aidanjm, i promised pics and didnt want to have users ignore an "already viewed" post.

You're getting really close though. One more thread ought to do it.

but his is just fvcking trolling... ppl wanted pics, i took them, i have started TWO threads about our tahoe...

Two about YOUR Tahoe perhaps but how many total? And how many GM threads in general? Or pushing your precious MAXX in every car thread?

Like I said, the badge stroking is getting old.

Viper GTS

Lets not forget the 10s (or is it in the 100s now?) z06 posts. FFS, it could be a thread about the punic wars and MM would still be posting about the z06 and yahoe.

And lets not leave out the fact that in car recommendation threads, he conveniently gives GM a nice plug in every single one 😉

go and search Z06 and MIKEMIKE. there is ONE thread with anything correlating directly to the Z06 that was written by me...

i dont typically plug GM vehicles over others unless they are truck based or the thread is about GM specifically, Toyota makes superior vehicles in almost every department, but deffinately not full size trucks...

and if you are referring to "used" vehicles i plug the Prizm, a NUMMI project which is basically a Corolla...

Comon, you're like sheepathon, except instead of food references, you have Z06 references. 😀
