    I'm mainly talking about in parking lots and stuff. There are a couple that drive me batty that I go to all the time. Greenway parking lot, there is a grass median with a drainage ditch I just drive thru all the time so I don't have to drive all the way around their stupid 1 way circle and dodge pedestrians and dogs walking back to their cars.

    Grocery store, I can either back up and go around this stupid island, its like doing a fucking 4 point turn, or I just can back up just a smidge, get a little momentum and just run that stupid hump of mulch the fuck over.

    Starbucks parking lot, you have to drive 200' down to the stupid entrance then follow it all the way back up, or you can simply turn left once you are off the main road, cut over a 5' wide grass median and park with the nose of the truck facing out.

    Same thing with speed bumps in an empty parking lot, hit those at 20mph. Those traffic calming bumps/humps in Belle Meade, those are like monster truck jumps, I just do the 25mph or 30mph speed limit, you can hit those humps no problem at that speed in the Tundra, doesn't phase it, doesn't make it crash or bounce, just runs over it like it was smooth pavement.

    Wuss. LOL

    First time I've had a big 4wd truck that you can simply drive over shit. Last car had 18" wheels with 245/30/R18 tires, busted two tires and destroyed one rim over two winters due to potholes. Here in Nashville, where it stays pretty damn warm and cars don't rust. After that shit, I told myself I wasn't driving another car susceptible to damage on our shit roads around here.

    Depends on the situation. Our roads for years were some of the worst. They finally fixed them, but during that bad era was glad to have the Tundra. Now that my truck is older, I tend to baby her.

    I try to avoid driving over shit because shit stinks and it flies everywhere when you run over it. So your now driving around town in a truck that smells like it's running on another type of gas, which doesn't get you any girls. Not to mention that I'd invariably I'll be eating something with the window down and I don't like eating turd sandwiches.

    Nope. Not unless totally necessary like if I am being chased by zombies or something. But haven't run into that situation recently. I keep it on the road, within the lines, and follow the flow of traffic, I even slow down for speed bumps because well that's why they're there.

    I have to admit I’ve hoped a curb or two usually leaving a game or something
    I’m the Black Friday designated driver this being kinda one of the reasons but mostly because I have a big badass (stock) Tundra that holds lots of stuff and people

    I have to admit, if i see a beer can, water bottle, or soda pop can in the road,, i just cant help myself, i want to try and flatten it. but i never intentionally, drive off the road unless its a designated dirt road or designated trail.

    There is one railroad crossing in town I enjoy ramping. It is a gentle lift off and landing though due to the grade of the road. It is almost like an engineered jump (no pun intended).

    I live in New Orleans. I have enough crater sized potholes and "natural" speed bumps that I don't feel the need to look for other stuff to drive over. I do park in the spots that people in cars can't and once in a while I will drive forward out of a parking space over those little concrete things.

    Just for the record I don't go to Starbucks. If you see my truck at a Starbucks assume it has been stolen or I am parked in their lot while shopping somewhere else.
