Ive got a Jeep that has nothing but transmission problems and Ive spent a ton of money adding rock crawler wheels and mud terrains and here is this dude, putting LED lights on his Jeep and Im sure his is problem free. Go figure. Bitter? Yes, I am.

Have you been chased down and butt raped by aliens because of that light show?
That wheel looks like a scene from Close Encounters.
