    Some men think they look better in Skirts. To each their own.

    ^^^^^^^☝️
    If the skirts aren't low enough to the ground, oftentimes you can see the undercarriage dangling from beneath it.

    YUCK.

    So that is what they are doing when they look under trucks an other vehicles!

    Here I thought they were looking for bombs, drugs, people, space aliens, cats,, etc.

    Turns out their just a bunch of perverts!

    Sirscrapntruckalot - I may or may not be serious. It has yet to be determined.
