I commend your trolling and sweeping generalizations. Customizing cars all stems back to the hot rod movement. Hot rodding has become a part of American pop culture and American car culture. If you hate hot rodding then you hate America! How's that for a generalized statement?

Actually that looks pretty good. You should replace those big elephant ear side mirrors though. I always hated those. The side mirrors from the later 1990s models looked so much better.

Thanks. Those pictures are from the day I did the drop. I have since changed the mirrors and gotten a cowl induction hood.

That body style is my favorite of any truck. I had a 1989 Silverado, unfortunately with those big mirrors.

Posted by lsu480 I haven't seen a lowered truck since the 90s FWIW. Are you guys saying you see them?



It's a rare occurrence, but when I see them there's usually a cholo behind the wheel

I'm always amazed that to a large swath of us, $$$$ customizations look cheap. Your blacked out lights and rims could cost a months salary, but to me it always looks like something a trashy 17 year old drop out would drive, and therefore, cheaper than stock.


Couldn't agree more.
