How do you guys feel about lifted trucks?

Mud flaps need to be made mandatory by law, your truck is cool and big, till it starts throwing rocks at my paint

All is well right? NO.

These dumbasses lift up these trucks, make too much noise, hang fake testicles from their tow hitches, and are just all around douchbags. They don't actually do any sort of off-roading that might require the use of such a vehicle.

It makes me angry. I hate them all.


What about you guys?

I just see it as another form of automotive expression. I wouldn't frown on a lifted truck, a slammed low-rider, a chopped bike, a hella flush/stanced Suby, etc..

I think that you always have to keep your mind open to all forms of modding.

I had an '83 Toyota pickup when I was younger, lifted, big tires. Being up high is fun, even when you're just puttin' along. My stock 2wd colorado is much more usable as a truck for hauling cargo though. I REALLY want a deuce and a half, but if I get one it will be put to hard work to justify owning it.

Before my BRZ I had a lifted truck. I loved it every bit as much as I do my BRZ. Was it lifted to be functional? Nope. It was lifted because I wanted to. It never went offroad and rarely pulled large trailers. It's main purpose was to get my bikes to the track (motocross and sportbike). It needed the mods as much as my car does but that doesn't make us leave them stock does it?







And for the guy that says trucks are slow.. Want to guess which was quicker?

Most lifted truck here actually see off-roading. I know alot of people with them, none are douche bags.

I actually REALLY want a jeep but they are just, if not more expensive to own than a sports car. It's just so much fun going out in nowhere land and be able to drive anywhere.

Diesel! They don't call it a "Pooper" Duty for nothing!

6 Leaker! When I sold it for the BRZ I was fixing it as much as I was driving it.

See, I knew it! Fixed Or Repaired Daily

Thanks man! :happy0180: My R6 is long gone but it was a fun bike when I had it all dialed in by Dan Kyle. I'm currently waiting for a 848 Panigale version or more versions of the MV Agusta F3, particularly an "Oro"!
