Whole Different Truck

hey guys, so i live in Ontario and bought my truck in November, a week before the winter hit. so pretty much immediately after purchase i put 300lbs of sandbags in the bed for traction in the snow. well it was super nice this past week so today i put in $50 of premium and took the sand out, went full synthetic oil change and new plugs and wow, its a whole new truck, plus it raised the rear end a couple of inches. anyways first rwd vehicle and first winter with one and i had a blast but kept it safe. oh yeah and bought a set of 6k HIDs for it!

Are you referring to your woman/girlfriend ? You stored your sandbags because she's 400 lbs and has gas?

Maybe I read it wrong
