    They are fine for small brushes and scrapes. And if you have a big enough hit to blow out your front end, having a “damage multiplier” is probably the least of your worries. The more significant ones are the brushguards with the headlight hoops are going to be the ones that fuck more stuff up than necessary when involved in a fender bender.

    Based on TW 2GR complaints, a trailer hitch would be a useless upgrade.

    Let’s you hear how close the curb is when parking. They click loudly when they rub against the curb. Very classy.

    I pretty much lol'd at a lot of these posts. "Douche bar" was my favorite. Spacer lifts over legit suspension lifts are my only useless modification. Especially when installed when you still have factory tires. Take the time save your money buy a premium suspension lift with the new tires. I've seen worthless spacer lifts do more damage to a vehicle than anything else.

    I could see that being useful for white wall tires. And the chromed accessories fans back in the old days.

    Otherwise ....

    This. IMO there's no other clear way to project your idiocy to other motorists. Pun Intended.

    Only one I might disagree with. Mainly cuz of all the mtn biking and climbing gear in the back of mine. Leave it in the hot Utah sun for a day and it smells like an NHL locker room.

    Good Point! Here is what I did:

    Hated that new truck smell.
    Squirted around a bottle of Liquid Ass in my cab.
    Now I feel at home in my ride.
