Make sure you have either a new fender either primered or painted as shiny as you can get from a spray can from Dollar General. Having a bug deflector on the front that is broke is a nice touch. Oh make sure you use some duct tape somewhere. If you can see the rear drums through the new American Racing rims (a must have) be sure to paint the drums neon green. Might invest in ONE nerf bar on the driverside. Make sure you put a loud stereo in with the worst set of stock speakers you can find. If you have to spill some beer or come cola on them so when you crank it up is really distorts the sound, that way no one can tell its Sweet Home Alabama a playin'.
Make sure you have a squeeky power steering pump as well. Make sure the slightest turn of the wheel will sound like you are killin' a cat.

screw the straight pipes and put stacks on it... either out of the hood or out of the bed... the stacks with the caps that clack up and down when you rev the engine... and paint it like a cow... black and white blotches,

mix up some bondo with brown auto paint and just toss it at the truck , then you'll have permanent mud that won't wash off at the car wash.

My favorite hick truck exhaust trick is running the exhaust out the grill and having a cherry bomb up there at the top of the grill on each side. A lot of old crappy wheat trucks and the lousiest service trucks around here are setup like that. It serves a purpose, to keep from starting fires in the field, but you won't see any trucks newer than about 1980 with this setup. First off, it looks stupid, and there are other ways to keep from starting fires, like not hauling too much *** in the fields. Second, imagine what that does to performance, having like a 180 degree bend right off the manifold. Lastly, there is not enough room in a lot of newer trucks to setup an exhaust to like this.

I bet it would be much easier with an inline six. Much more room. Just have the pipes run out of the fender at an angle.

i seen a hick truck yesterday. it was a early 80s chebby, with glasspacks, the bottoms of the cab was gone and the cb anttenna was mounted to the side of the bed with no cable going to it,,,, not the top rail or the inside. but it had brand new wheels and tires and it was lifted. the funny thing about it was of course he was revvin it when he started it.... but he kept stabbin the gas and lettin off right away after he put it in gear so he was almost givin himself whiplash he was hittin it so hard.
