^^^ I agree with ya if it was some random guys rig who spent tons of money on it just to drive around. But that is a Rize "moving billboard" ! Its pure advertisment! Comercials are going outta style now with Tivo and what not and companies are starting to look for other ways to show off their product. If you build lifts, build a truck with your best looking lift, add a bunch of other little thing you got, throw a nice paint job on it and people will look. I think they estimate something like 75k people see your truck in a giving time if you drive "x" amount of miles. There is a company around here that is willing to pay you like $500 a month to slap a horrible looking paint job on your truck and have you sign a statement saying you will drive "x" amount of miles every month. I looked into it... but the paint job is just WAY too bad. They paint it like bright blue and put the graphics over your windows (back). Im starting to see more and more truck with em tho. Oh, and they prefer lifted trucks that are clean.

 

Why do people bag and body drop mini trucks? Why do people build 1200 hp Mustangs that do 7 seconds in the 1/4? Why do people ********** with peanut butter whilst wearing thier grandmothers skivvies? One simple reason....BECAUSE THEY CAN! That is the basis for the ENTIRE billion dollar aftermarket industry. Its all about making it your own. I dont think any of us have any right to flame a guy for building a monster-lifted truck that will never see dirt. Its his dime and his truck, let him do what he will.

Sorry to have gotten off on a rant, but it irritates me when someone questions a fellow trucker for building the truck that HE wants.

2 cents spent.

 

Is it just me or does that truck look like it does not clear the 40's? It looks like it would rub like a biatch.

 

new front bumper impact9 ? ? ? ? That thing looks like a monster now! Thats awesome looking ! which company did you go thru?

If you could, that would be mucho appreciated. I have pics all over our office and waiting rooms with nice vintage mercedes and then brand new one. The ones you last showed me are hangin right beside me. Great pics, and in great shape. Shoot me a PM or you can e-mail me at Euroauto@sonic.net.

Here is a pic of a mod i just did for a customer. Went from the the regular ole lights to some real sharp looking projectors. Nothing too special, just an '03 S class Mercedes. Its brighter then chit now, and the customer loved em. Not the best pic but here it goes :
