The guy with the black and tan truck was putting his truck down and everyone jumped on the bandwagon. Personally both trucks are nice but I'd take adams

Thank you but I know I wasn't putting anyone's truck down...that Black and Tan truck is sweet and all I said was that it would look better with custom wheels on it instead of the stock fx4 wheels and all hell broke loose and everyone started sayn stock looks cleaner and better and I know I said a bad *** looking truck is one with nice wheels/tires and definitely lifted and everyone but jacked up seems to disagree which is fine (crazy to think that) but still fine. When my truck was stock last winter, it was clean and the only thing on it was a bull bar...so plain and did not stick out in a crowd. Every lifted truck that I passed I was like wow I can't wait til I can do that to mine so everyone does that to me. I respect everyone's opinion but no way in my mind an eye catching truck is a stock one unless it's really old or brand new...not a 97-03' ford f150 and I personally don't like the new body styles of the f150 compared to ours though either. I like ours better for sure

I wasn't putting anybody's down though, and normally don't which is what kinda pissed me off when he started in about lights,

Trailer queen is just referring to a truck that never really gets "abused", or gets "babied". these trucks sometimes need to be abused. i understand if the truck is brand new and you're still making payments, but for us who dont have these truck payments we will use 'em and abuse 'em.... and i dont mean treating the truck like crap i mean going out and having fun while still taking care of them and not really worrying about mud or scratches. i know you want to take care of your investment, but to have a lifted truck and not use it for a little fun blows my mind.

I see both sides, just because a truck is lifted with different wheels doesn't make it "badass". I have seen some that are painful to look at. Just because its not lifted doesn't mean its a boring stock truck either. I love a good looking leveled truck. Some people don't need to spend money on a lift so they can settle and be happy. It doesn't mean it can't be "badass". There is not a rule that states what makes a truck badass or not, it is all an opinion. Some think lowering the truck looks badass, cool. I may not like it but more power to them.

Man I am 36 years old, my tearing **** up days are over and yes I don't want scratches all over my truck and it's been paid off for years. I've already had my truck professional buddies out twice to get rid o the scratches from taking it in the woods to pick up deer, check trail cams and all that...now it sitting and the 4 wheeler will do all of those things for me instead of my truck so I guess I'm a trailer queen and dam proud of it. I would rather waste my money on more toys than fixing broken components on my truck from taking it mudding or rock climbing

Yeah, we all have different views on what looks good, like I really only like the 20's with 35's or bigger, it makes it looks more proportionate to me. Anything smaller than 35's I would stick with 18 or smaller.

I for the most part agree but a leveled truck in my opinion has to have custom wheels to be badass...some of the newer trucks have really nice factory wheels which makes it stand out and badass to me but just a plain factory truck doesn't do it. It's hard for a vehicle to be considered that of it doesn't stand out in a parking lot above all the rest...but like I said it's all about preference and after having a stock truck, a truck that was leveled and a lifted truck I will take big red how she sits now any day over the other two!!!
