    Not angry, just think it looks like shit. Kind of like the guys with the spokes on their cars sticking out like a foot and a half on both sides it looks like shit and serves no purpose.

    Form is a function.

    Sorry to break it to you but subjective aesthetics and looks are just as legitimate of reason to mod a car as a "functional" mod.

    Sorry to break it to you but it looks like shit and doesn't do anything good. So fuck your "form is a function" nonsense the shit still looks like shit.

    If it looks good to the owner and they like it, it serves its purpose, no? Form is a function. You cant really say something that they did subjectively isnt legitimate.

    Like you have never once in your life done or liked something simply because you liked the way it looked lol.

    never meant for this to be a hate thread. I'm new to trucks and just found this style in my surrounding a lot. Was just wondering if it was a Bay area thing because I see these trucks all over the place. What people do with their own money is their business. They aren't hurting anyone, let them be happy!

    Man if I had a rig like that I would have to use google maps to strategically map out parking for my outings!

    I make fun of brodozers just as much as anyone else, but I'm a logical person and know that even though I think a lot of it looks like shit [to me] doesn't make it any less of a legitimate reason to mod the car in that fashion.

    It kind of reminds me of the guys that buy a bad ass liter bike and stretch the swing arm and put a giant rear tire on and remove one of the front discs, so you can see the front wheel better. It looks like shit, turns like shit and now your 180 mph motorcycle stops like shit.

    Have you ever bought or worn clothing because you thought it looked nice? This is a rhetorical question because if you haven't you'd be a liar.

    And no I never bought them because I thought they looked nice, I buy them because they are more comfortable. Function over form.
