That part made me laugh a little on the inside.
I am a lover of automobiles of all flavors except most imports. I would much rather own a lowrider with hydros than an import. But then again I grew up in the 80's and 90's.

Imports are like tampons every "kitty kat" has one......Sad thing is diesels are going down that same road.

You guys don't think a KW or Pete slammed doesn't look killer?
A lowered 2wd looks ok I don't care so much for a lowered 4x4, KW or Pete would be

Uh NO! I think that is about the stupidest thing I've ever seen done to a class 8 and I have probably been around them longer than most of you fellers been alive. The only thing dumber is sitting with your butt on the floor and looking through the steering wheel. Now that's really professional looking.

no need to be rude. everyone has different opinions. i dont like it either, but im not rude about it. if the man wants to spend his money that HE earned doing whatever, then its his choice! if i want to put chrome spinners on my motorcycle (not that i would) then i should be able to, right?
