Every truck looks different. What do you guys think makes a truck look good?

My Lord...You've created thread that will NEVER die... I prefer a "clean" look, with no bumper stickers, or rebel flags on it.

FIRST!!!

this is very true!!! there are too many toys and not enough money to make these trucks look good !!! i like the lifted look, dark windows, nice accessory lighting, etc.

Ok, IMHO, I tint the windows to match the back ones...Illegal, but looks nice. they also have to match the same from the inside. I've seen them look darker on the inside, yet match on the outside. Looks like ***. I also spray the bed with one of the spray-ons. I like the Rhino Tuff Grip because it's softer, and doesn't scratch stuff as easy, yet holds up to a load of rocks if needed. I like rims, so when my tires wear out, I'll get some, but not the 20's. I like tires for off-roading, and don't want to break a rim with a narrow sidewall. Then I keep it clean. Again, no bumper stickers, or dealer badges. Buy the weathertech floor system for keeping the floors clean. It works the best, again, IMHO. A nice muffler is the last thing I do. I can't see reworking the exhaust for minimal, if any gains. I don't use a CAI as I dyno'd my last vehicle with a cai and full exhaust, and it was identical to stock...Yes, sometimes you win, but more often, they don't do anything. Just my opinions. Will probably lift it 3" when my tires wear out, but it will be a body lift so I don't change the geometry of the half-shafts.
