No, my truck is no Neon, but it's nimble enough to scare/amaze a buddy of mine that drives an '02 F-250 Crew. It's all relative. I'm sure my 2wd Scab has better parking lot manners than your lifted 4x4 Scab.

I'm amazed at the turns my buddy does in his 05 Chevy. Your vision in front of your hood will be horrible, same goes in back. You will have difficulty knowing where the wall is (it's a crap shoot to get a foot away from an obstacle). You'd really be amazed at how far you really are when you're pulling up to an object and you think you're close. Some of these guys might not admit it but it's very difficult to see how close your front end is to an object. I definitely wish I had parking sensors.

haha sucker!

Well guess I need a lift now with the new truck to really say anything, but the rev sensor is a must have already!

Only thing with my 06 over 04 sensors is my 04 lowered the radio down when the beeping started, but 06 doesnt!! have to turn down my radio to hear the beeps!

you definitly need to get use to it. I only have 35s and when I first got in I thought the truck was HUGE! I didnt know how close I was to the person in front of me and I couldnt even see my friend behind me in his 914(VERY small car). But now I am use to it and can tell how close I am to the car in front of me pretty well even though it sorta dissapears. I scare some people in my passenger seat sometimes . They think im hella close but I really still have 3 more feet. Now that I am soo use to it I want that monster truck feeling again so I want to go bigger
