In the past month or so I got the itch to mod my truck again after I had neglected it for nearly a year.
After having some paint work done I got around to installing RGB LED rock lights and bed lights, new smoked LED cab lights as one of my Recons went out, Bilstein 5100 shocks to go with my progressive leveling springs and some other odds and ends.

This past weekend I went to the Crandon World Cup TORC short course races where I had something I had never had happen to me before. Just as I parked and jumped out of my truck with my girlfriend and a bed full of buddies, a group of guys stop right behind it and one say "wow man, you must need this to compliment your huge ****"
Keep in mind I don't find my truck to be anything special, I mean its a nicer regular cab and I enjoy it so I take care of it.
All I could say was "well you could ask my girlfriend" as I walked around to the back.
I couldn't believe these 4 or 5 guys had the audacity to stand around my truck talking **** and then even ask for beer!
They got the point when I just ignored them, one even saying "we better leave, he isn't having any of it"

So now some more recent pictures as well as some of their comments
"Is that thing a "dizel" or a gas job?"

"That thing even have a hitch"

"Must really use your bed alot to have carpet in it"

"Do those lights still work if you get mud on them"

I have never had that happen to me, I have gotten a few compliments from random people walking by and that is always really nice.
West Texas has a lot of lifted trucks/jeeps so it pretty common so I guess the **** jokes aren't as popular.

I could only laugh at it. You could tell they were trying to troll so hard but weren't expecting me to just ignore them I guess.

Some people just don't appreciate a nice truck when they see one. Or just cant do something g like that themselves so they found a way to cope. Always a city boy that makes those comments though

It also doesn't help that I look young and people think my parents pay for it.
I got carded later that night and could only laugh. I asked the lady how old she thought I was, she responded 18, I'm 26 haha
