    Does anyone else see those truck nuts and think they are tacky and such? Personally I would NEVER put them on my truck, but I have seen them pop up more and more lately and I know you can buy them at Spencer and such, but does anyone else thing they are pointless and make the truck look stupid?

    I say if your truck has balls then prove it! Show us what ya got! ;D

    Im pretty sure the general consensus is that they're stupid and redneckish.

    There was however a set of blue balls being circulated around for a while, not sure what happened with that.

    It would be for shits and giggles if I put them on my truck, like at a meet or something, not driving around town. It is pretty funny to sneak them onto your friends cars and trucks while they drive around

    I know a few rednecks (i have nothing against them since im friends with some) but i dont think they are "redneck originated" or anything. When you think of redneck things, the only thing that comes to mind in the confederate flag.

    I dont even know if they are legal in any states or not. I think they are funny, but some may find them offensive. Same thing applies if you had a vagina attached to your car or truck. Or boob dice or something.

    I have no idea if they are legal or not. They sell them in stores so i'm guessing they are legal to a point. If not the cops would of shut the company down looong ago.

    They make your truck look like shit in my opinion, Kinda like bumper stickers. The actual ones that are rectangles with some stupid quote.

    I think a few stickers are alright, but when get any sticker and put them on.. then it looks bad. The only sticker/s I am putting on my truck are going on the back window (batman sticker of course), and thats it.
