You got that right! That thing is hidious looking IMO...... I've never understood wanting to turn a truck into a sports car, when you can just buy a sports car.

That truck looks like it came from the 80s.

I don’t fit in a sports car...so I build sport trucks that can run with the cars.

Have a friend that drives a C7 vette and he's 6'10" pushing 400 lbs! He had to make a few mods but seems to fit ok. Just saying... Trucks start with HUGE performance disadvantages (weight) which obviously you know. I have a C6 vette running around 650 hp (S/C'd) and I seriously doubt there's many pickup's that could run with it...

Anyway that truck IMO is flat out fuggy!

I’m 6’7” and can’t fit comfortably at all in my best friends C7 Z06 and I wouldn’t want to modify one just to fit.
And I’ve built several trucks that would rape a 650hp C6...in a straight line or around a corner. lol
