I've experienced that before but only when it's really cold.

"On a given day, a given circumstance, you think you have a limit. And you then go for this limit and you touch this limit, and you think, 'Okay, this is the limit'. And so you touch this limit, something happens and you suddenly can go a little bit further. With your mind power, your determination, your instinct, and the experience as well, you can fly very high." - Ayrton Senna

We need a picture of a Harley Davidson in the bed of a 1 ton Chevy truck with a Donald Trump for president bumper sticker.

I went camping a few years ago and drove by a run down trailer with a crappy old Iroc Camaro with a rattle can paint job parked in front.

That's the epitome of redneck.

Using your truck to transport your dirtbike makes you a redneck?  Goddamn Raz, you really are a city boy.

Using your red lifted truck with smoked Altezzas that you can afford to fix to transport your dirt bike makes you a redneck.

If I had the extra cash, it'd be done.  But since I don't and nobody IRL cares about tail lights, my apologies to you all for being a disgrace to automotive enthusiasm.  ;)

Eh you have a sweet truck and a dirtbike. Who cares what anyone on the Internets says.

I'd like to buff Tacoma out next spring/summer.  So I'm also thinking about de-badging a bit.  Get rid of the TRD stickers on the rear fenders, get rid of the Toyota above the Tacoma badge on the tail gate...and maybe also delete the V6 SR5 badge on the tailgate?  I dunno.  Leaving the V6 SR5 would keep it symmetrical, but I think having Tacoma as the only badge on the rear would look nice as well.

Or is that redneck, too.

Replace the original badges with those heart shaped deer head logos, wrap tailgate in RealtreesĀ® camo. Lower the rear of the truck, but leave the front lifted. Get wheels with the wrong offset so they stick way out. Get green HID headlights and verify they are aimed straight into the eyes of other drivers.

Don't forget the TEXASS EDITION plastered across the doors and a mural of the truck on the tailgate.

Having a truck and a dirtbike is already pretty redneck, and then putting the two together..... :lol:

And, I never claimed to be anything but a city boy!

You're a redneck because you're a yooper. No city slicker could survive up there.

Funny part is, I'm pretty non redneck by Yooper standards. I do and enjoy Yooper things and live happily in a place city slickers think is somehow crazy, but I'm not a logger, never shot a tirdy point buck, don't own a gun, I'm not dirty all the time, etc etc.  For cripes sake I drove a brand new A4. Not horribly redneck. :lol:
