1. It just goes to show you.................
how poorly those moblie homes are made. Look at the other picture of the truck inside the house. The front end doesn't even look damaged. Like a hot knife through warm butter.

2. No way
The truck is far too nice to belong to a Freeper. The mobile home looks to be of pretty recent vintage, as well.

Now, if it was a rust-bucket Chevy POS truck with no working tail-lights and explode-a-matic gas tank plowed into the side of a mobile home that looked only marginally worse for the experience, I'd say this was straight outta freeperville.

5. Even that's kind of luxurious looking
If the tires were spray painted the same industrial green, though, it would be getting there. Needs a bumper sticker like "Adolf Hitler is MY Fuehrer," too.

But the right mentality is captured there.
