Just look at that. This truck is taller than a used kid (10 years old). I assume the truck can run over pretty much any other age but probably the driver might be able to see older kid’s heads. Or we could teach our kids to jump to school rather than walk. If you see a truck, jump and make eye contact before jumping while crossing the street. Or we could tell our kids to never go outside until they are 21.

      The hood is really just for checking fluids or minor repairs (bu-dum-tss). For anything big, the body gets lifted off the frame.

        A lot of the time the truck is put on a lift and the part is dropped out from under it. Removing body off frame is a ton of work, no one is doing it unless they absoultely have to

      You don’t have to open the hood, you just bend a bit and work from under it. There probably even isn’t a hood.
