I've got to say, I watched the video again. It actually flew pretty good and landed nicely.

Agreed - putting aside the incredible stupity of this stunt (note the proximity of a very large and heavy immovable fixed object - a trailer - near the jump, and the fact that the truck lands on only two wheels), I was rather impressed with how high they got a 5000ish pound vehicle off the ground (not to mention the suspension travel as the hit the jump and then landed - and bounced).

I couldn't help but notice that the truck was making a few rattling noises - wonder where those came from

Yeah I thought it flew pretty well too for a 5000lb lump. I heard some rattling also, as well as the kenlowe fans when at the end. All in all the Disco held up well I thought. A friend at work said his son did a similar trick in a Toyota (T100?) and completely screwed up the front end. His son came home and said he hit a "bump". When he looked at the truck and grilled his son the truth came out LOL.

I always wondered why I see so many chicks driving Disco's? Maybe it's so they can hit curbs when they're busy talking on the cell ph.
