I'm not sure about the new trend here but it's bound to happen sooner are later. So here you go guys. You can say you saw it here first! I bet that is one scary ride at speed. Then again who knows it may ride like it's on air.
This is for all the air riding guys now you can be low and high! :metal: :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol: :metal:;) |
Re: New trend!!!
Some how, that doesn't look like it's driven much. I doubt it's safe either.

Re: New trend!!!
I don't know how many of you guy's have seen this, but they call it the South Carolina squat here. The young guys do it to everything.:chevy:

Re: New trend!!!
I'm wondering if they chromed the inside of the brake drum as they did the outside?

Diff'rent strokes I guess -- but I will say it does not appeal to me at all. I'm trying hard to not say what I actually think of it. Don't wanna offend any kids out there that like it.... ;) |

Down here at the beach it's every other truck you see is like this. A lot of folks call it the invisible trailer fade. Some call it dog $#1+ squat! Main names all the same meaning!
Myself I just call it stupid.:chevy: :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol: |
Re: New trend!!!
It looks terrible, if it's squatting like that...I want to see a heavy load in it......P##sy truck is what it looks like to me! :lol:

Yep. Squatting it is.

Re: New trend!!!
Boog - that makes me laugh and is actually pretty accurate.
While I really don't care what some other mentally challenged person does with their money or their truck the idiots around here doing the "squat" have two issues that I REALLY wish the authorities would step up and ticket for. #1 - they do not adjust their headlights and meeting one at night is murder. #2 - they almost all have 4-6" of tire sticking out from under their fender which is supposed to be illegal. Get behind one in the rain and you won't be able to pass on the interstate for all the road spray. Personally, I wouldn't want to throw all the road debris up the side of my ride. Definition of cool changes but I've never been one for fads. When I was a teenager convertible trucks and paint splatter paint jobs were "cool" but I didn't get it. Even at 16 my favorite truck in the area was a super clean silver over white 68 custom cab C10. Was cool in 1985 and would still be cool today. Just like jeans and a t-shirt, may not be the rage but never out of style. |

In high school (circa 1980's), the first thing a kid did when given Ma and Pa's old car was to jack up the back by adding extended leaf spring hangers and scrounge up a rear set of oversized wheels and tires. I guess it's taboo to repeat history and what else can the kids do but jack up the front to be different. Next they will be just jacking up one side. :no::no::no:
I still have a soft spot nostalgia for jacked up Nova's. Remember when this was cool (pic borrowed from the web)... EDIT: forgot to mention air shocks to give the ride that "Rock Hard" feeling! |

In certain cars I like the look. This is my 1964 NOVA gasser with straight axle. 383 Stroker, turns 12 sec with a Muncie 4 speed. :exit:

Well...illegal as f for road use to start with, dangerous... and just plain stupid, imho. Just because you can does not mean you should.

Re: New trend!!!
Not my cup of tea ... :mm:

Re: New trend!!!
Meh, the dragg'n ass look is a fad, no different than the Gasser, Jack it to the sky and make that brick even worse Aero drag. Or the high jackers in the rear.
Seems many forget the fads their generation if not them ,themselves took part in that were just as stupid. none of it was safe, or legal. The dragg'n ass truck fad isn't my thing, but I see it for what it is, it is no different than the gasser look that made an aero brick even worse, the highjacker rear that killed handling and braking, the pro street cars that died as soon at the 10.5" racers made them look stupid. Every generation has "their" thing they think is cool beans. I find it sad when older folks compain , forgetting the silly fads they followed. There was ricers (posers) long before the import crowd. |
