Dose this truck look chopped to you?
I am trying to figure out if it is chopped or just the way the picture was taken. If it is chopped it is not by much... Now that I look at it more. If it was chopped the custom badges on the cab would be shorter also..

Re: Dose this truck look chopped to you?
Yes that is a nice looking chop, not too drastic...they just took the "tall" out of the roof.
I think they just took the chop amount off the top of the custom cab trim... the custom word is not centered anymore. |

Re: Dose this truck look chopped to you?
Chopped...........used to see one out here that had less........maybe 2" taken out. Seemed like a lot of work for such a mild chop, but it looked good. I dont care for some chops Ive seen on these trucks, makes them look out of proportion to me. Just my .02

Re: Dose this truck look chopped to you?
chopping should be all about proportion.
for instance, a long fleet would take less of a chop than a short. The longer vehicle won't need too much of a chop before it starts to look too low the basic rule is 1/3 =top, and 2/3 =body of the total hieght. here is a short flee that I think came out ok. And a long. |
