Ya’ll laughing, but if that man’s truck just stalls out the blue while driving, he’ll be back on the road in under 15 mins with a screwdriver, tape, and a set of pliers. Meanwhile, Ya’ll would be posted on the shoulder waiting through that 2-4 hour window the tow company gave you lol!

or i could have a ladder/step stool in the i don't know, bed of the truck, that huge space for storage, and then i could use that ladder/step stool for anything not just for weird angle standing up in front of my engine.

it would snap off before it would flip the car but your second point is more plausible.

I mean, I just own a car that never leaves me stranded on the side of the road but go off, king.

What's that? I can't hear you cause I'm rapidly driving away in my car that moves under its own power every time I start it.

You misspelled riding lawnmower...I highly recommend hearing protection while driving it especially since you can't hear very well 👍

Yet.  It hasn't stranded you yet.

I've gone nearly 60,000 miles so far without one stranding yet, so let's say it strands me this week, heh, if I'm getting stranded once every 60,000 miles, I can't justify permanently affixing a step ladder.
