What’s in my football bag as a semi-pro footballer?
I’ve been playing football since I was a kid, spending countless hours on the pitch. Over the years, I developed a deep understanding of what works and what feels right,
not just in sports gear, but in all kinds of products. That same passion for quality and performance sparked my interest in advertising and recommending items. Now, I love sharing carefully chosen products on Benable that I truly believe in, helping others find gear and essentials that make a difference.

I drive a fire breathing 2007 dodge ram 5.9l 3500 her name is “Dustina Rhodes”. I have spent years adding upgrades between breakdowns for this work truck and have been very happy with the results and have received many compliments and have many talks at the pump. When she was a work truck I'd pull on average 18000lbs daily for 10 hrs. I stopped hauling and can not justify continuing to upgrade her now she's just a beauty queen. Super reliable with a considerably more horsepower than stock jacked up trucks that look like her. Its alway fun to blow away little mustangs when the light turns green. Best part is nobody suspects it because she don't roll coal only give away is loud pipe. and some dress up stuff.
