Who doesn’t like a badass-looking lifted truck? Sure, most of the ones we see are driven by tattooed jackasses that stand at 5 feet 3 inches and like to season their pizza with HGH, but the trucks still turn heads. That 5 year-old part of our brains that endlessly played with Tonka trucks and BIGFOOT models in the mud never completely goes away. So when I saw this truck, less than 50 feet from the swanky Ivy Restaurant of Bevely Hills, I had to cross the street to check it out. At first it looked like a normal 4-door short bed with a good lift kit; black truck, black wheels, yada yada. But something peaking over the roof caught my eye. What is that black, angle-cut cylinder poking up from the bed? Is it a tow hitch? The tip for Kim Kardashian’s lipo machine? No. It is the exhaust tip to end all exhaust tips. Fart cans of the world, this is your god. If you own a Nissan Altima, with an “R” badge and 6″ coffee can muffler, you are no longer leader of the idiots. I have seen plenty of trucks with the semi-style “smokestacks”, and while stupid, at least there was a connection. Semi-TRUCK, pickup-TRUCK. A thin connection, yes, but a connection nonetheless.
Here however, there is no connection. This pipe belongs on top of a house, or a giant cruise ship, or perhaps it could be used as a tunnel under LA for a subway system. It’s so big, even Shaq could drop a free-throw in there. I wonder how often this guy has to chimney sweep garbage out of his exhaust before he can go to work. Seriously, if I lived on his block, there’s no way I could resist stuffing a cantaloupe in there. Like a fat girl with a pretty face, this truck is a waste of potential.
Does it run on coal?
I checked. Fully functional.
Make your truck growl with a Ford F150 exhaust from AmericanTrucks.
Wow. Yea, chimney is definitely a more appropriate term for that piece. And may God have mercy on their soul.
Must be steam powered, cause something that big belongs on old steam trains.
When I lived in Kentucky these where fairly common on Diesel trucks, most of the time there on either one side or the other, or both instead of the middle. Its only not cool when someone with a gas powered truck tries it.
it's just not cool.
how is that not badass?
thats badass looking with a black stack mounted in the center of the bed
