I'm with Head, no bling for me, function over form. Those wheels are just tacky on a 1st Gen. With that lift I bet it rides like a pogo stick and steers like a haywagon going down the road, the front DS will snap a joint the second it gets traction under load in 4wd and must be averaging what, about 12mpg with those tires?

No thanks.

All else aside, no diesel pickup is "badass" in my book until it's making over 400hp.

Just sayin'.

I'm not impressed with a truck that only makes the numbers for 10sec. on a dyno, either. I guess that's the thing about modding - anyone can can build somethig that breaks or blows up under heavy use. Consistent, reliable, useable power is what I consider "badass." Bling or looks does not even enter that equation, just icing on the cake. If it looks nice, great, but not absolutely necessary for "badass."
