That truck is gorgeous. I'm very partial to black GMC trucks. I wish I had the money for the new bodystyle.

We sold a black Regency Badlander that had a six inch lift in about 18 hours of it hitting the lot. The guy said he would have been out sooner, but the weather was too severe. The truck's lines just go with a lift very well. I can't see a lifted Toyota being very good looking.

How silly.

I imagine that these truck owners are only compensating for something.

i understand your point, im an HD kinda guy....but, this is how the Z71s should come from the factory!!! OK ok, maybe not 7" lift and not 35s, but 4" lift and 33s for sure.

How silly? Your comment is silly. This is America, remember? Whats the problem with "personalizing" your own vehicle? And this truck isn't even "outrageous". It is very very clean and simple. Its no different than you rearranging the flowers in your garden/yard!!

Haha, I believe that the HD's are the bevy of customizations, leave the 1/2 tons for lesser mortals! hahaha.

to the people who can't stand anything customized, I suggest you sell your house and live in gov't housing, and for that matter... please leave your rights to opinions at the door as well seeing you do not value other people's opinions or ideas (and modes of opinions or ideas, e.g. vehicle customization)

It's probably from personal experience that I draw my stereotype.

Any person I've encountered that has owned a lifted truck has also been about 5 foot 4 and got picked on as a kid.

I'm all for personalization, but why lift a truck? I guess to each his own, but it just seems silly to me. In an accident, that bumper will never meet the bumber of another car. It's a hazard.

Just pray you are never rear ended by it.



Especially if you are sitting in the back seat.
