    I just can't figure out what it is about this damn truck that makes me have to turn around and and look at it after parking. Anyone else have that problem? I've had some nice vehicles but this one's got a strangle hold on me baby...

    Here she sits in the garage waiting for tomorrow's "paint my stock TRD Sport wheels satin black" mod. Can't wait! :D

    To be honest, my truck doesn't look nearly as good as yours, but I still have the same 'look back at it' issue. I gotta tell you though, I would trade my truck and yours for the Camaro!

    Is it wrong that this dude's friggin' Camaro is the best looking vehicle I've seen on TW?!?!?

    Fair enough - I've always just had a serious thing for a first generation Camaro...

    Believe me...I love my Camaro but I have to disagree too. I've seen some trucks here that are off-the-hook!

    Really funny man! I have the same problem, i tell my self it is pride and i need to get a grip on it but then I say to myself, " if it was someone else's truck i would look at it all the time too:)"...but then it would be jealousy right? hahah who cares the fact is you have a bad ass looking truck and if you want to enjoy it then so be it. cant let it's good looks go to waste everytime you park it! take a peak, you DESERVE it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
