Arrow What does HDS mean?

This is probably a silly little question, but what does HDS stand for. I have seen it advertised on some of the older Magnum series.

Thanks for your help

Holy Dog ****?.... I think the heavy duty suspension sounds pretty close. I tried googling it and got some related info about the HDS having a little less travel, so I'm assuming that means heavy duty suspension.

Sounds like a pretty good guess. They are SRA instead of independent which would make sense.

My son had the ATP which was a lot like a Magnum but with a dump bed instead of the rear rack. It had two coil over springs to suspend a massive trailing arm solid rear axle. It was very heavy duty. Makes the most sense to me.

Hydrodesulfurization?

Ok, the suspension thing does sound a little more feasible.

Wait! I got it!!!!

For the longest time when they came out with the new models, Bold New Graphics seemed to considered an upgrade. So maybe it's Heavy Duty Stickers.
