Many pages back a few people stated they dont like dual exhaust out the side. I have to disagree, I think it looks better than the standard run of the mill duals out the back. I had dual exhaust out the side on my 96 and it looked like a fire breathing dragon if you were in front of me on a cold day. lol...

I agree 100% man. The nerf bars are probably a necesity just to get in and out of the car. And 26" rims can't be good on the suspension, have you seen the angle on the contol arms on those cars?

Sidenote, I also hate seeing nerf bars on a car. I recently saw a 1980's era caprice with a twentysomethings and nerf bars. When was it cool to throw 5K in rims on a retired taxi anyway?

PS My exhaust exits on an angle behind my rear tires...I like it.

I can't believe no one has said they don't like those wheels and hubcaps that keep spinning when you stop. Those are the stupidest things I have ever seen.

I also hate fog/driving lights that are poorly done. You've seen 'em - with wires hanging out bolted to the top of the bumper all crooked and sh*t.

I also hate trucks that have wheel spacers that make the wheels stick out 6" past the fenders. Waaay gay.

And, as some others have said, I hate big rig vertical stacks sticking through the bed of a hopped up diesel that sounds like a garbage truck. How you gonna slide a piece of plywood in the bed with those things in there. Stooooopid!

What about trucks on trucks?


ALWAYS yield to the truck with stairs.
