If I could find a nice 97-03 truck like that I would consider buying it and sell my Vic and my truck. There just aint any of them around here. I never use the 4x4 anymore inn my truck fact is I rarely even drive it anymore. I will when I get rid of the vic though.

Do we not have a thread of shame for hideous paint/wheels/body moulding/headlights yet? That's a good start.

To each his own though. I applaud him/her for doing something different.

I just knew this was going to be in Texas. When I was living in San Antonio I would see all kinds of "custom rides".

Hell the further south you went the more the taxis were pimped out as well. Dayton's and curb fellers lol

I see a lot of 97-03 F150's around here that are customized like this. I just always see them while driving and never get a chance to get a good picture.

There is another 97-98 I see driving around my work sometimes that is even worse. Its a lowered white single cab long bed, with gold wheels/low profile tires that sit completely outside of the body. I'm not sure how it's even drive-able with the wheels out so far.

This thread is just for fun and is not meant to bash on anyone or any race. Half of my friends are from down south, it's just one ugly truck lol.

It's in Grapevine close to the DFW airport. Road has a few different names but is commonly called highway 26.

I might be able to top this. There's a 1998 f150 in my town that looks like a snake. Might take me a while to find it though.

Huh, I see pics of streets, places, etc. that look so familiar, then see they were taken in Texas, and I think "surely that is a road I know!", but no

According to my mapping software, Highway 26 in Grapevine follows Ira E Woods Ave, W and E Dallas Rd, Texan Trail, and E Northwest Hwy.

Yeah that pic was taken on Highway 26 at Ira E Woods Ave/ Pool Road intersection, right before Highway 26(Ira E Woods) turns into Colleyville Blvd.

Highway 26 has a different name in pretty much every city it runs through. The part of town I live in calls it Boulevard 26.

I have to give people directions to my work all the time over the phone and no one understands that Highway 26 and Ira E Woods are the same road.
