Would somebody put this on there tailgate? I took it with my camera phone so the quality is not good. It says LAND ROVER. I saw another truck the other day that had a sticker that took up the whole back window that said PORSCHE. What are people thinking........

glock35ipsc · 08-24-2007, 01:30 PM

You can't fix stoooopid!

72BlckButy · 08-24-2007, 02:16 PM

What about those that put Explorer on their front windshield??? And it's on a F*** Explorer?

Drive's me crazy! It's like.... "hmmm.... I seem to have forgot what kind of vehicle I'm driving, but wait, I have it in 4 inch letters across my front windshield."

Dingfodgy · 08-24-2007, 04:00 PM

Judging from the complimentary "tuner" style taillights- I'd have to say that this owner has a serious "wannabe" problem. He can't decide if he wants to be a yuppy-a$$, overly pretentious LR driver or a young, hip albeit tragically mis-guided, ricer-racer. Either way the end result looks completely ridiculous.

mplex2000 · 08-24-2007, 03:53 PM

I see this a LOT on Bimmers. They have the BMW plate frames....when the BMW logo is about 4 inches away from it. I guess everybody likes to feel like they customized their car.

Although, in that pic up top, I see the chinese clear tail lights, which tells me exactly what kind of person is driving that truck. $100 says it has chrome fenderwell trim, chrome triple blade wipers and chromed plastic stick-on door handle covers.

.......don't forget the cheesy, chromed plastic barbed-wire L-Plate frame and those crappy lighted valve-stem caps a la Wally-World!

....or the full underside purple neon kit.

mplex2000 · 08-24-2007, 04:37 PM

LOL we got this guy pegged. We should get his lic plate # and I'll have a cop buddy get his address and leave him a ticket for something like display of piss poor taste in public.

your forgetting the chrome chain link steering wheel

ChevLoRay · 08-24-2007, 06:38 PM

What about the cheesy, imitation Okele seat covers or maybe they're some sort of camo print? Then, they could have neon under the body, unless it's already been mentioned. There's the lighted windshield washers, the fireflies on the valve stems and the missing section of the grille. But it's got fog lights, right?

LOL The picture doesn't show the sparkly panther sticker on the door.
Unfortunately, these types of trucks are all too common where I live. I usually don't pay too much attention to them until I see something like this

OLDIRON69 · 08-24-2007, 03:56 PM

If I put 'OLD IRON 69' on the back window (in small font) will you guys laugh at me???

**jerry moss** · 08-25-2007, 10:22 AM

does it have the chrome door edge guard trim around the doors and the gas filler door? we have several of those around here but i don't speak the same language so i can't ask them why

satin64 · 08-24-2007, 04:02 PM

my favorite is "powered by honda" stickers.....no really???you have a honda motor in your crx????thats trick!

danny6892002 · 08-24-2007, 06:45 PM

when i get my truck done i will put a "I Love My Honda" stiker and then on small letters close to it will say Killer.

**special-K** · 08-25-2007, 07:20 AM

Different strokes..............It`s amazing what you can learn about a person from a sticker and a pair of tail lights.

68C15 · 08-25-2007, 07:42 AM

if he ever had to work on a LR he would quickly rip that thing off there. but then he would probably slap on a "TOYOTA" or something else.

AlienYouth · 08-25-2007, 11:28 AM

99% the time, if you start a post with no offence, someone will be offended

Many members are of hispanic decent here.Let`s keep the slurs off this sight.This is about the least classy thread I`ve seen for quite awhile.Congratulations!!!
There`s always a herd to knock tacky to real nice trucks.Let`s leave that to other sites.Is it a fact that they only sell clear lenses and stickers to Mexicans?

Couldn't of said it better myself. Keep the slurs out, or this thread will be closed.

we all probably have something or something done to a personal item that would not look so good to others its all a matter of personal preference

mplex2000 · 08-25-2007, 07:46 PM

Since I am so very PC, I will just say - even us whities have our stupid trucks. I like the guys in 2wd trucks that have huge mudder tires, mossy oak camo seat covers, and that big dear skull sticker on the back glass (and maybe a K&N, Browning, Edelbrock, Cabela's, some other sticker as an accent).

Lol...too bad everybody can't be as cool as us 67-72chevytrucks.com folks!
