    I actually kind of dig the step side Tacos, they don't look half bad. The Tundra back end is what kills those step-sides, I don't know who thought that design would look good but I hope they moved on from transportation design after that attempt.

    I like the taco stepside because it looks pretty normal, I hate it because it makes the bed basically useless, minitruck aren't big enough to need step sides

    Any truck looks good slammed when done right.

    I actually really like mini trucks and all the stuff that goes into them, tbh it’s probably harder to make a good mini truck then it is to makea good off road truck

    I would agree until you get to link 3 links and stuff.

    But don’t the do those when they lower stuff too?

    (I honestly have no idea)

    Sometimes they do, they go through similar stuff depending on how much they're willing to give up. Everytime I see a really nice looking lowered truck they disappoint me, they're either bagged and ride like ass or the work was done poorly but painted up nice. Off-road stuff often seems more skookum

    Yeah there are way to many lowerd trucks not done right. They dont c notch or notch the cross member or they are just chopping springs. But when they are done right they actually ride better then a stock truck.

    Any well done truck should ride decent and look well done.

    Pretty obvious to look under a lifted truck and tell if its well done or not.
    (Lookin at you block lift)

    Its funny because blocks on 5lugs lower them. Ive seen guys use 3” blocks to lower the rear. It seems so sketchy
