    I don't have an ignorant attitude and that phrase is nonsensical anyway. Ignorance is a lack of knowledge. I know plenty about slammed trucks, plenty enough to know that they're idiotic. :cool:

    Where's that emoticon? Oh yeah! :stirthepot:

    x2 i think a dc xr would sell....idk how the sales are on the mainland, but down here there are a LOT of doublecab colorado xtremes down here

    so someone driving a 6" lifted prerunner that only drives to the mall and back is less idiotic? no one hates on the lifted pic threads. have some respect.

    why has this been moved to the street trucks section? there are lifted pic threads up on the regular second gen forum, why is this different?

    Have respect for what? Because you like slammed trucks your opinion is sacred? :confused:

    Yes, mall crawlers are stupid. I can hate on those threads too if you'd like?

    I'm just amused that you're all this irritated by someone arguing with you on the internet. :rolleyes: Come on. Refer to this comic: http://xkcd.com/386/

    i didn't say my opinion is sacred. im just saying that if someone wants to have a thread with lowered trucks, you don't need to come in and put some BS comment up on it.

    That's an opinion. Reading through, the OP asked a simple question and he got an answer. The name of the site is TACOMA WORLD, all that is tacoma. Why do you feel the need to defend/push your opinion?

    My opinion is that I know plenty enough about you to determine you're an asshat or an individual with a severe case of short man syndrome.

    Well, he asked a question, and I answered it... admittedly, in the most ass way possible. Will you people lighten up? :rolleyes:

    Erm... Ignorance is defined as a lack of knowledge. That is a definition. What you bolded is not an opinion...? :confused: Or are you just upset because you don't understand the word 'ignorance'?

    Ignorance:
    –noun
    the state or fact of being ignorant; lack of knowledge, learning, information, etc.




    And now you're jumping to personal attacks because I realize a particular thing is ugly and useless... Keep it classy, San Diego!

    No need to get all butthurt, people. I'll let you enjoy your hideous slammed trucks without further comment. :D

    I used to think slammed trucks are useless because trucks are utility vehicles and lowering them reduces their utility, right? Wrong. Lots of lowered trucks still have a surprising payload rating, just they handle the curves a little better now at the expense of ride comfort. There are a million ways to personalize your vehicle and there are a thousand ways to slam a truck. Just because it's not what I choose to do with my Tacoma does not mean that nobody should do it. To each their own. Variety is the spice of life. There, I think it's been said enough ways.

    I know what the word means. The fact that you said it's a lack of knowledge then a sentence later stated you know enough about it. Does that mean you know just enough? That would be lack of knowledge! :rolleyes:

    You opinion differs from people that have slammed trucks. It's a style they like. It's a TACOMA. That gives you zero room to bash them or what they like.

    For the record: I'm consistent with what I just posted - I'm not going to hate on slammed trucks anymore this thread.

    However, I can't let this go. Someone in the internet is wrong!

    Why exactly does the fact that my opinion differs from anyone mean I have zero room to bash them or what they like? ... :rolleyes: Do you understand how this works? Anybody is free to do what they want, and anybody else is free to shit all over what they like.

    The only people who can decide otherwise are those who run tacomaworld, who can do whatever they want. Just because you don't like the fact that I'm calling a truck you like shitty doesn't mean I can't tell you that a truck you like is shitty. Got it? ;)

    You make no sense. So because one person likes something that isn't your taste you are going to bash it? That's ignorant.

    How is that ignorant? You sound like Michael Jackson.

    First of all, somebody responded to the OP asking what a slammed truck was, and I responded, albeit in an asinine way. I didn't randomly decide to start bashing slammed trucks until I was further provoked.

    Also, yes. If I don't like something, I might say so if I feel so inclined. So what?

    Not enough.
    I have no problem with lowered or lifted, I just prefer lifted a little more. I still have my 91 s-10 that I bagged and body dropped in my dads garage all on my own, I drive from time to time but usually I only take it out for some cruise nights and some shows. But all round driver is my taco, which I plan to LT in the next year. In the end someone elses truck IS NOT your truck so let them do what they will with it, they pay the bill right?

    And I quote myself:
    Also, Michael Jackson, when asked if he thought it was wrong to sleep in the same bed as small children, replied "That's ignorant!" You didn't pick up on the allusion. (Yes, allusion is a word.)
