    Do people just create new accounts to make stupid threads that they think will gain traction on Friday's?

    One further, I bought a Tacoma, just to join this forum, just to post this dribble.



    But honestly, this was meant to be lighthearted, hell I even included a troll pic.

    Im a firm believer in you do you, but that also means I get to be me.

    I mearly stated I don’t think Ford Raptor lights look right on a Toyota Tacoma, and folks want to meet and presumably fight?!

    THATS CRAZY!

    I don't get the hate for Raptor lights. I don't have them personally b/c I already have way too much going on with my rig, but I think they look good on most of the trucks I've seen. I guess that's the positive thing about the mod market, something for everyone.

    I have Raptor lights on my truck. And I like them. I also replaced my OR grille with a TRD grille. Do what you want with your truck and I will do what I want with mine. I'm and old man and I don't care what other people think.

    I love it. That’s what the younger people don’t get. We have lived and done a lot of crap. We are at a point that we don’t care about a lot of stuff. :bananadance:

    All the dumb brodozer shit I see people do to their rigs around here....a few grill lights is pretty low on the list of things to shake your head at.

    And if you're old like me....long before the Raptor was even a thought in Ford's head....lights in a grill were just........grill lights.

    I'm not a fan of Raptor lights on things which didn't come with them, so I don't have them on anything I own. To me it just feels like copying something which has already been done. However here in So.Cal. I used to think (until I bought my Taco) that all new Tacos and 4Runners came with Raptor lights, Ditch Lights, and 1,000,000 Candlepower light bars were all dealer-installed since they all seem to have them LOL!

    If you have 4 lights, how can it be Raptor lights? Way back in the day we called them penny lights.

    Yup, The first Raptor was wide enough to legally require clearance lights, and Ford thought to put them in the grill rather than above the cab like a dually.
