the first major purchase
and the newest toy
the latest toys are a leveling lift...and 15" wheels with 31" tires. and round fogs for the bar.
looks good except its a ford
i still have my car...i bought the truck to beat up on...the car still is the babied one.
Isn't it 2wd? I dig lifting a truck but usually you lift a 4wd.

prolly not. i wouldnt be able to get off of work. and its not 80s style!!! if it was chrome...then you could say that. and my fogs will be on it soon!! it reminds me of marty mcflys truck.
It looks nice but the first time if snows you are going to be stuck with the 2WD, and the wide huge tires just make it worse. I know cause I have 33's on my Toyota and that thing would be worthless if it wasn't 4x4. I had put it into 4 wheel drive to get out of my parking spot one day when there were just patches of ice under my rear tires lol.

Sold 2/2/05
we already had a "decent" snow this year...it does just fine actually
it does fine because you dont have the 31's on it yet, just wait til those are on there. That little 4 banger wont last too long pushin them tires either.
I have a buddy who built pretty much the same truck, needless to say he dumped the thing after a couple weeks into the winter and got a REAL 4x4.
But hey its your $hitbox and hope u enjoy.
I don't like the bar at all, and lifting a 2wd truck is just silly.
i just said...its not for performance...its for looks...i couldnt afford a 4x4 and this was a heck of a deal.
Sooo.. You're lifting a 2wd truck, putting big tires on it too.. You're trying to make it look like a 4x4, when it's actually a 2wd.. Would you call this 'truck rice'? lol..

ricer truck lol
hey look at me in my cool big truck.
lets go hit up some trails cool big tired truck guy.
sorry i cant its only a 2wd ricer truck..... and it still looks ugly and cant get out of its own way... even though if i saved up the money i spent on all of the RICER accessories i could have afforded the 4wd.... but i'm stupid and thought that a big truck would make me look cool.
i love the 80's by the way... michael j fox in back to the future 2 is my hero..... what a nice truck.
^^^^^^^^
Bwahahahahaha.. Exactly what I was thinking..

If I am not mistaken in the 4x4 world you are what we consider a Mall crawler. Sounds a lot better than truck rice.
Amazing. When you get 20,000 people on a site, you get some that get crazy about Cavaliers with wide body kits, lambo doors or sound systems that don't even belong in movie theaters and then you get these guys who beat up on someone with a 2WD truck like they were V8 drivers beating on a 4 cylinder guy...
It all boils down to this... Do what you like and forget the rest, because they don't know what you paid for what and they aren't making the payments!
this is why im glad i dont need any of your acceptances on what i do to MY cars. im glad you all have opinions, but it get annoying when you rag on someone for what they have. so i cant run out and buy a brand new truck or a 4x4 with the latest gear, ive worked hard for what i got, and im sorry it doesnt meet your appoval. but its a good think i dont really give a crap. if you like it...great..if not...im sorry, its mine and i do.
