    Actually, some guy around here murdered his mother-in-law and got busted 'cause he was seen towing a wheeled garbage can behind his car.

    I can see what is going on here. The person (not sure if that is a woman or man) batteries took a shit. The Tundra owner realized that there was no flippen way that person was getting into a DC Tundra. After looking in his door panel, the Tundra owner was in another conundrum. He seen the vehicle capacity, did some quick Chinese arithmetic and realized there was no flippen way that person was going in the bed of the truck unless someone with a 1 ton came along.
    Being a humane Tundra owner, there was only one thing left to do. The Tundra pulled a space shuttle, so he could pull this person in a broke down Jazzy.

    The Tundra owner puffed up his chest and beat his hands like a male gorilla and showing male dominance, put the truck in 4low for maximum traction and torque, and then floored it. The tires were spinning, salt infused ice was spraying all over this "person" and the tundras tires finally hit pavement and launched. In the words of Jay and Silent Bob:

    "FLY FATASS! Fly!!!!"
