Flame-Free repsonse =)
Just my 0.02... I like the slammed look. I plan to slam my dak here this
summer. I'm not a "Scrapin' to be known from coast to coast" or something
guy, but I think that a truck can look good with almost any amount of
mods. I like the big 4x4 just as much as the scrapin' with bags 2WD. Of
course, stock looks great too! Just to stick up for my fellow lowerin'
types: I think it's cool =)
