    I have a hood scoop and I honestly don't like it. Every time I am out and it's an awesome sunny day I catch glare off of it and honestly it has caused me to lose my field of vison once or twice. Now it could be because I have a white truck but I don't know. Any suggestions?

    They don't help that much.

    I was going to get a Sockmonkey decal for mine, but he stopped doing decals before I got around to ordering it. I thought about having a body shop black it out for me, but that may be more trouble than it's worth......

    I am seeing a lot of ridiculous posts about the scoop being "poser". I can find a line of people that have the exact same thoughts on a prerunner. Its a poser 4x4 for those who never go off road. I could also get just as many that say a 4x4 is poser if you are not going offroading every weekend. THe list is endless for poser items. The scoop is an attractive trim option and nothing more. Its not posing as anything else. Its decoration. Just like those lifts and Duratracs that never see mud or rocks.

    I agree, I could have bought my 08 with a scoop but I lifted the hood and realized it was pseudo I said no. They should be functional.

    I totally agree. Instead of the scope on the off-road, they should do a snorkle. That would be awesome!

    I would like to know for all the folks that voted for "skewps should be for sports" actually own a sport, just for kicks.
