While Skids may be the most talented of the two you have to remember Mudflap's brain-sacrifice for MC Paddington!
I like how they name skids but Mudflap? wtf? that kind of car doesn't have a mudflap... Only 8 Wheelers and Dooley's have Mudflaps (I think)
Can you imagine Skids or Mudflap offering ice cream to Ironhide " Do you want some ice cream, sir? " only to be met with a warning from Ironhide's uber cool arm weaponry in their faces " Prime, permission to take out these pests!"
