My buddies truck was rear-ended a while back. The impact crumbled everything from the bumper to the axle...essentially leaving very little from rear axle backwards. In that case, you are not looking at a velocity delta...I was imagining the shovel being 'pushed' into the cab. Either way, it's terribly unlikely, but maybe worth considering. I don't think it's necessarily unsafe where he has it, I just thought it through to the next step and mentioned the passenger side might be the ideal location.
Thanks for passing that along, I can cancel my murder plans now.
Good thing you mention that....I'll be in Sugar Land for Christmas.
You guys can put this down for one of my best under $50 items because I'm going to order them. It looks like most of these hooks are under $10. I had no idea.

Why wait and why spend money? Twenty penny nails into that chunk of wood (at an angle on the side NOT the top) and you have what you need....

Again not sure why you just wouldn't wear the seatbelt. However this is an option to disable. If maybe you were hauling something. I have had mine come on before when had a case of water in the passenger seat. Thinks someone is sitting in there. I guess if you regularly had a tool bag or something that sat there you might want to disable it.

LOL, yes, he could have saved himself 4$ and 2 months of waiting and read the seatbelt section in the manual there is a quick 4 step process and you can disable the chime and warning. I see a lot of people disabling it in Forscan but again, there is a procedure to do this in the manual.

Could it be when you turn the chimes off it only works while driving. I do where my seatbelt, but UNLESS YOU PUT YOUR SEATBELT ON BEFORE YOU PUT YOUR KEY IN THE IGNITION it still chimes, regardless with Forscan or the click/unclick 100x trick. The first thing I did was read the manual on the "Chime-minder," but for some unholy reason the people that did the chimes were like "yeah, lets make an option to turn the chimes off while driving, but damn it not if they just get in their truck, F that."
