Yeah not sure if I'm really liking it that much, but idk if it's because it's a bad chop, or a bad idea. Haha
I think just a bad chop, like the idea.

I would, if it were a 4wd. I want it to come off more agressive, but not too agressive. I was thinking just bedline the fenders instead of the bolt on fender flares.

also, just thinking, the shadow makes it hard to really judge it, maybe try the job on a different angle with no shadow

Yeah maybe I'll try a different picture, when there's a lil light outside. I think I'm going to end up bedlining the rockers and fender outlines. No bolt on fender flares...Cheaper that way anyways =p

I hate having a truck that looks like a street demon. Lol.
I wish I had a 4wd, but the price was right when I bought this one.
Next one will be a mud truck. :)

suspension, body looks dumb imo, a gap between your truck and frame, are you nuts?

but if you do a baby lift like a said, you'd be fine, and plus most girls don't know how to tell if its a 2wd or a 4wd

Haha true. I'd have to wait for that until I get the moola for new tires, but that's definitely something to consider

I love lifted 2nd gens. No matter how big the lift, they are just kinda costly and I never thought about it on mine because it's rwd

If I wanted to put 265/75R16's on would be 504 for the tires alone for what I'm looking at..not too bad really.
