lifted trucks
 
i find it funny, now that the weather has gotten better all these lifted trucks have come out. They are always ten times cleaner then my car and prob have never seen any time off paved roads. Also it seems people are trying to out do everyone around here and there is a truck that i think has semi truck tires on and is so high the bottom is taller then my car. Can't see that being safe or even legal. Just the little thing i noticed. People need to drive their cars or trucks the way they make them and not just for show.
Also, i have no problem with lifted trucks just seems foolish to do it when it is only going to drive on smooth paved roads.

I take it someone doesn't like rock crawlin then.


I really want to get a 4x4 but there is always another car I want more. What I really want is a lifted and modified amc eagle.

Whats wrong with show vehicles? I guess the next Carlisle event I'm at, I'll try to tell them that people don't like show cars.

My friend used to have an 88' F350, 5" lift, 35" mud tires. It was always clean, but that is because he would wash it every week after a weekend of mudding.

mcperson2k 04-27-2010 09:23 PM

I'm not a mechanic and even I know that leaving mud to dry on the underside of your car is a no no. So I am assuming they A) Wash them after they use them off-road. and B) Don't off-road every single day of the week.

and lifted truck drivers are saying similar things about those of us that build "race cars" for the street.

so at the end of the day, we're all wrong in each others eyes

Exactly, it goes both ways.

My thoughts exactly. I've built almost every type of vehicle out there. In the end it's all about what you enjoy.

Couldn't agree with you more...in my case, add 2000 more lbs. :) Poor wittle cars.. :lol:

PAFirefighter11 04-29-2010 09:41 AM

My Silverado is stock height but my Wrangler is lifted .. both are regularly more dirty than my bike :)

vettez062002 04-29-2010 12:11 PM

when we got like 20 inches of snow. my 1/4 mile stone driveway wasnt plowed.. I have some funny vids of us ripping my lifted chevy 2500 diesel around inthe snow.. I dont drive it much during the spring/summer unless im towing trying to keep the miles off it

Red94Celica 04-29-2010 10:42 PM

Its not like theres tons of places to go off roading around here frequently, so seeing a mudded up lifted truck isnt exactly common. My jeeps lifted 4.5" and on 33''s but doesnt get taken off road every weekend because its simply not that easy. Plus like stated early, leaving your vehicle plastered in mud isnt exactly good for it either.
