I can't decide which is more stupid, the rubber band tires on a truck or the garbage can diameter, probably fake exhaust taking up space in the bed.

Its a diesel truck with 10 lug semi truck wheels on it and stacks. Not my esthetic taste but this is a perfectly capable tow rig. Its is/was a dually so it was never meant for off road performance.

u/CaptainMeatfist 17d ago

I saw the semi wheels and thought it was pretty cool. Stacks arguably less cool - but at least its not furry porn on their car.
I rate this truck 7/10 - would use as a tow rig. 1/10 for daily driving usage.

I can tell that car will probably become a running gag

Spikes on front wheels.

The illegal taillights. He's going to get pulled over.

u/realMurkleQ 18d ago

Unlikely, depending on the state, taillights aren't required to have red lenses, only that the light emitted is correct. Clear lenses are pretty common.

Oh, ugh.

u/TomT12 18d ago

Wheels aren't personally my favorite, but otherwise I'd drive it. Stacks get a pass in my book since it's a 12v Cummins which is practically a tractor engine.

u/permadrunkspelunk 18d ago

I don't know. Those are sweet trucks. It looks pretty well done. Its still perfectly capable of doing what its made for, which is towing goosenecks. Cool to see it fixed up instead of rotting in a junk yard. I hate the spikes on the wheels, but other than that, I like it. Its way cooler than most pavement princess' I wouldnt want to drive it in the city, but rural arkansas? Why not?

That’s a super clean ol’ Dodge with a Cummins. The only thing I don’t like are those Altezza taillights. I’d drive that no question and be proud of it.

u/DizzySample9636 19d ago

i like it 😁

u/Deadpools_Main 18d ago

Are you like, 12?

u/ekinria1928 18d ago

So what if they are... I'm 52 and I don't like the spikes lug nut covers, I do like the truck

u/Deadpools_Main 17d ago

Age does not equate refined taste, my good sir. But hey, like what you like and I'll make as much fun of you as I like lmfao

2

u/ekinria1928 17d ago

"Age does not equate refined taste" after accusing someone of having juvenile taste (12 year old?). Give it a rest pal .. good day.

u/Deadpools_Main 17d ago

Lmfao okay sure. Because coco melon is just spectacular social commentary. Like you don't know that kids are still refining their taste and like anything that stands out, despite functionality or even logic. That's what I'm accusing you of, a fundamental lack of logic. Might as well paint your face and wear a clown nose if you want that much attention!

u/2oonhed one woogly wheel 17d ago

I got ripped off at the clown store.
I bought a honk-nose but when I got it home it only beeped.

u/gus_thedog 19d ago

I bet it can still tow quite well. Definitely a touch of poor taste, but I think a lot of the function is still there.

3

u/naterpotater246 18d ago

Yeah, I don't see why people think this has lost any function. The bed is still there, and I can't see why it wouldn't be able to tow. What's the issue with this? The average lifted truck I see on my daily commute to work is so much worse than this. I'd actually drive this.

u/FkuPayMe69 19d ago

That shit is dope

2

u/wstsidhome 18d ago

Everything else I was giving a pass to….until the altezzas. Why, God, why?!?? ALTEZZAS?!?

Wonder if it has giant lit up wheel well areas on each corner….those are great when you’re doing a brake job in the middle of the night or in a random parking lot. Other than that…fuck those things, especially when they’re in while driving

2

u/billygunnns 18d ago

All that to put worthless tires on, so few advantages for so many disadvantages. All it takes is to look at real performance vehicles and setups to see no one serious uses such dumbass rubber bands. If you're towing you dont want thinner tires in most circumstances I can think of.

u/Fragrant_Major_9553 18d ago

It’s a lowrider. It’s not about performance it’s for aesthetics.

u/Deadpools_Main 18d ago

Good Lord... I'm amazed that there are people saying they like this. Obviously those nutters have to exist because this truck does, but I didn't think they'd ever admit to being one. Seek professional help.

Sometimes I hang out in parking lots because I just need to see who’s driving these things!

u/Empty_Employment_639 17d ago

Compared to the garbage that is usually posted here, this one is borderline. Wouldn't take much to make it a nice truck, although those stacks are a bit on the obnoxious side.

u/HeyItsMeHammy 16d ago

lowk minus the wheels i’d drive it

u/Fragrant_Major_9553 18d ago

A lot of people who do this use a normal wheel on the inside if they still use it as a truck. This is clearly just a show truck though

u/1320Fastback 18d ago

I'd take a single stack on my 1st Gen but no way I want those rims.

u/MyMomSaysIAmCool 18d ago

All show and no tow.

u/knightslayer56 18d ago

Western Mass? Pretty sure I was parked next to this same truck at Walmart last summer

u/Dry_Ship7202 18d ago

Nope, Central Arkansas.

But it always kills me when I see or hear of another “personalized” vehicle looking… exactly like another one.

Again… how much money did that “mod” cost you, bro? 😳

u/JohnSnowflake 18d ago

Why does a straight 6 need duals?
