Rednecks should not be allowed to modify their trucks

[iamwiz82]

Damn, how do they get away with things like this? :hmm:

Well I'm thinking......gas mileage doesnt matter if you can lift a truck like that. I'm betting .25mpg on city and .75mpg highway.


Actually....I don't think thats street legal....

That's fine, it just needs some triangulation.

Is it just me or did he just weld a piece of the front frame on there to hook the front suspension to?

It looks like he got the frame from another Chevy and cludged it on there.

I'm sure the mount for the torsion bars is completely unmoving.

It's no coincidence that you see plenty of shiny new trucks rolling around with lift kits and very few old ones.

It's because very few of them survive long enough to become old. Not that I'm complaining. Just natural selection at work.

Redneck modding is when you use a coffee can for an exhaust tip and you make a spoiler out of wood. This... it might not happen much in the northeast, but pretty much anywhere else in America this will happen.

That truck belongs on Scary Steering: http://128.83.80.193/scarysteering/index.html

Umm FYI rednecks aren't the only ones doing it. You see that done everywhere here in LA/OC area.

Yep, not much different than donks. Just a fad.

What size are those tires?

 

[marvdmartian]

Sure is a good thing his fashionable steps he welded on hang lower than the front & rear pumpkins. Ought to make it one helluva asphalt-only 4-wheeler!

I hear rectangles are the new triangle.

Wonder how often he has to replace U joints. That has to be some wicked vibe.

The upside to this is, on the road, nobody will fuck with him. Bigger wheels has the right of way.

Depends what you mean by "fuck with". He wouldn't have a chance at a merge

Anyhow, I'm not sure why people care about things like this.

For the most part, the majority of people who do these kinds of things are similar to people cruising 1930s Model A's with equally crappy steering and antiquated suspension; they are just cruising in the right lane trying to stay out of the way and not endangering anyone, they aren't out doing slaloms in the middle of the intersection or trying to pass you on a cloverleaf.

Sure you can point at the occasional asshole driving a 20 ft high truck light it's a Ferrari, but an idiot like that is no more dangerous next to you on a public road than an idiot that thinks his stock Civic can do 10 Gs at 100 mph.

Model A's don't hit you in the forehead with their bumper, or drive over your car outright.

Overly jacked trucks aren't safe. It's generally not legal either, but no one enforces shit anymore... They should cut the suspension off on site, if caught over the limit.

Neither do jacked trucks *not* being driven by inconsiderate asses who think they can stop in 10 feet.

There is a thing called private property, individual liberty, right to life liberty and pursuit of happiness, and the constitutional provision for enabling one the power to use force to protect oneself from intrusions against those principles.

Do we take away knives and guns from everybody because they aren't safe, or do we just punish careless and irresponsible individuals on a case by case basis when they actually cause a real tangible problem, and not a imagined "what if" problem?
