No wonder we can't get a street truck to win TOTM!!!
its the point of a idiot doing that to a truck. It would be like buying a 4x4 and slamming it to the ground, whats the point???? That truck has no point to it at all, what good does it do???

The point is he wanted to do it. It's his truck. It does whatever he wants it to, just like yours. So what if he doesn't have the same agenda for his truck as you do for yours. That is what's pointless.

not my thing but what got me was the interior.

why put all that money and time on the exterior and then what you see everyday driving the thing is pretty much stock interior. overall that made the truck that much uglier to me.

how many times do we have to have this same discussion. people do what they want to their trucks either lift or lower or lay frame. its personal opinion and no one else has to like it just them. leave it at that. you can not want to lower a truck but they may want to and you think its stupid but its their truck and money and not yours.

Beauty is indeed in the eye of the beholder gentlemen! Thejake is right. His truck, his money, his vision. I personally think the truck is sick! It shows attention to detail and for us that are into the street trucks its a great example of one!

Didn't mean to imply that you thought it was any less of a truck, I didn't take it that way

I always get a kick outta people getting all worked up over someone lowering a truck that low! Funny thing is when a person lifts a truck up crazy high no one ever makes mention of how it's no longer practical either. Extreme lifted trucks are as practical as a bagged ground dragging truck...

Who cares what the dude did to his/her truck? Why does it bother someone so badly that a person does that to THEIR truck???

To each his own.
