Platinum on 40's

This is not my truck. A guy I work with parked next to it at lunch today. He took a few pictures for me to drool over and I thought I'd share the favor. I have no info on this truck other than these pictures.

It is cool and all, but I sure wouldn't want to drive it much. Haha.

I guess people who have that kind of cash to blow probably also have a more sensible ride to tool around in though.

It's fun to look at. Looks like quality work but I wonder what you use a truck like that for. Too high to tow and the bed is so high it would be hard to even use that. If it's just a cool toy then I'm fine with that too.

I agree. When I finally save up enough $$$ to buy a new Super Duty it will stay stock. I've driven lifted trucks since high school and I'm getting to the point in my life that I'd rather have the reliability of a factory vehicle.

I agree. I must be a square but I never alter a truck besides the normal staples a guy needs eg. mudflaps, bed mat, etc...

I can't say never. I still have a '92 F-150 flare side with 6" of lift on 35" BFG's. The difference is it's not my daily driver. My '15 Fusion is completely stock except for tint and window vent visors (and it averages 31mpg). I'd sure like to have a new Super Duty so I can haul my play truck around on a trailer, but it'll have to wait.

I have always had lifted trucks, lift them before i get it home. I have towed 35 foot travel trailer and a 30 foot center console with no issues. But qhen you go that high its dangerous. ( In my opinion, hitch has too have way too much drop) Looks cool just not practical too me.
