Living in oil country Albeeria I get to see silly/ridiculous/awesome trucks every day on the road. This one reaaly caught my eye and I cant help but make a thread. Ill post up a bunch of different ones I see running around, some of them are nearly non-functional due to the crazy silly mods.


How many things do you see that are just plain wrong/awesome on this truck? there are 5 that immediately pop out at me.

I saw a truck like this about a week ago in a strip mall parking lot. It was a black chevy truck, an SS model too.

I don't see no handicap sign hanging from the rearview mirror, douchebag.

Just so you know, there are things called license plates that can and do indicate handicapped status.

I happen to have one, and I run into idiots all the time who want to give grief for not having a sign in the window - not required if one has a plate.

While the owner of the truck in that picture has absolutely awful taste in tires and rims, one should not judge without first checking the license plate.

The worst thing about Alberta is that trucks are more numerous than cars.

My bad, I was not aware of disability licence plates. I retract my statement, thank you for your information. My mom has the placard and I would use it whenever I drive her to her doctor's appointments and even with the card visibly placed I still get the looks from passer-by's. I've seen my fair share of where the spot gets blatantly abused by other drivers.

Alberta is SUV/truck galore, not so much minivans. It's been a trend over the years I've noticed.

Here is WA state people don't seem to go that crazy as the above pics indicate, but no doubt there are a few. The standard lift, engine work, semi stacks, and maybe a winch suffices.

Nothing like seeing some 5'7" babe in tight jeans getting out of one of these, and then climbing back in. I swear there are a ton of hot women around here driving huge lifted trucks around here, and I can be in Seattle in 20 minutes.

Of course I would love one my self, although a little more understated. Functionality over fashion I guess.

Found another one, but this one was a little more respectably modded. Massive stacks in the back, and sitting in a pack. I actually like it sans stacks.

I have seen MANY other more ridiculous trucks driving around but cant get a good photo of them until they park.

-Pointless headache rack/toolbox combo
-1 ton with duallies, and I'm gonna guess no gooseneck hitch. Owner probably has never towed anything that would require more than a half ton.
-stupid ram tail light covers that obscure most of the light
