If you need the steps to get in, then there's nothing wrong with it, but some people get steps jusgt for the cool factor; also, it depends on the truck.

I'm not sure about now, but I know for the 02 F150, the 2WD sits higher than chevys 4WD.

There's a couple of trucks running around, the truck is low to begin with, and these guys have steps, that look like they're practically scraping the road, it just looks silly.

im surprised noone has mentioned the huge double blade chrome windshield wipers

i mean seriously?? how can you put those on your truck, step back, and say "dang that looks friggin sweet" haha

also i hate ridiculously small tires, i like the wheel well to be full
untinted front windows
those stupid stick on fender vents....why does everyone have those?? lol

i work at a vatozone...i know flame on...but seriously everytime someone tries to buy some cheap ridiculous part like people have said on here i try my best to talk them out of it haha

They still make those wipers? Those are so.....1980's.

I also hate it when the rim lip sticks out past the tire sidewall.

Chrome. its played out. especially those chrome fuel doors
huge wheels on lifted trucks WTF?!
slammed trucks are cool parking blocks, about it.

stupid stickers like "my other ride is..." the only good one i seen was "your girlfriend, but she said not to tell."

no tint, come on man tint the windows! even a light amount...
headlights aimed everywhere but the road... go hit a deer maybe it'll align them for ya.
trucks with duals and one pipe banging around.
cali look.
K&N stickers.
cheap steps. actually kinda taken distaste to steps in general.
truck nuts
mismatched camper shells.
stick on scoops, cheap grilles, too many lights, underglow/neons

truck beds without scratch's or dings..

theres more, i just have to stop lol

oh i forgot the worst one.

those sky high lifted trucks... you know, the ones that look like a box on wheels and dont even have a front driveshaft... yeah. those LOL

How many "Virgin Mary" vinyls are there? Nothing against her, but that image is so played. And those oversized Old English letters and car logos... Jeezus. - Og
