Default Bullbar debate



This debate has been going on for some time in Australia and at least this chappie seen in the carpark behind my office makes his stand clear.

At the risk of offending any-one...(as if I give a damn)...we call them Paki Pushers...had 'em on my Ford Explorer.

After several ha'penny shoves with the turbines, I got charged with littering.

Default Bullbars

Bullbars have quite a following in rural areas (along with B&S balls and Bundaberg rum), and are seen as a practical addition to any vehicle. Not only do they add pleasing lines to a bland vehicle, they also offer a place to mount up to 6 aerials (UHF radio, CB radio, CDMA mobile phone, GSM mobile phone, car radio and a few dummies or spares just for looks) and a similar number of spotlights. Very practical! They also happen to magnify injuries to pedestrians and other vehicles, and increase fuel consumption and front tyre wear but thats a small price to pay.
