Any fans of big Trucks here?

Hey guys just wondering if we had any truck fans on this site! If so lets use this as a place to talk about em, also post up what you have and what you use it for.

As you can see I have a Titan, and it is my work horse, that truck pulls 75% of the time and when its not towing something it generally has a load in the bed! I have also spent a lot of time ripping it apart and modding it in my quest to learn about vehicles and frankly I enjoy getting my hands dirty on a auto related projects.

Nice T! Mine's a bit shorter but I haven't stopped getting stuff for it despite having car payments again... You gonna go mod-crazy on the Z as well?

If they are kept off the road they are fine. We have a lot of rednecks that drive in from outside of the city in their lifted trucks... sure, it's cool out in the country, but watching these morons try to negotiate through parking lots and city streets is ridiculous... and unsafe, IMO.

If you've got wide open spaces, though, go for it!

Like I said... if your area has the space to accommodate you, go for it!

It's kind of like taking an AT4 to an indoor pistol range... it just doesn't fit.

No, I didn't call you a redneck. I just called these guys that drive into DC rednecks.

That is a badass truck. I don't think it would fit in a lot of places around here.

FWIW, I'm mainly bitching about the ones that have tires bigger than yours... that stick out much more.

StLRedrider · 03-08-2010, 10:17 PM

it's all good. these are actually 40's on there. but with the size of the truck they dont look as big. 40 x 20 x 13.5. i dont like the tires that stick out too far, looks like shitt!!!!!!

I for some reason always imagine a big ol' red pick truck....when someone says redneck

I like big trucks, and they are much safer ... for the person in the truck
