It's all the extra equipment to turn the evil ICE by products into fairy farts.
And all the safety equipment.
And all the distractions that people demand that will require them to need all the safety equipment.
And they need extra space for the continually expanding average American ass (mine has unfortunately expanded quite a bit since buying the 996 ).

I believe there is a binding clause in your work contract with him that states that if you screw with the Solution you consent to be used as a prop for his up coming video series "32 modes of making idiots suffer"32wildbilly wrote: ↑Wed Nov 11, 2020 6:38 pm I do have an oil change coming up...

Oh Jake is way beyond 32 modes to make idiots suffer as he deals with a lot of idiots. Some modes are quite innovative.
