question for the 4x4 guys

[cstm68]

so i was in a parking lot today and on one side of me was a huge lifted newer truck with all the custom lights and bumpers and chrome it had huge tires with off road tread and nice chrome wheels.
on the other side was a brand new toyota tacoma with all the same type of stuff on it, the nice wheels with lots of tread, roll bars, lights, grill gaurd, wentch and all the other goodies.

what i dont get is why people buy these trucks and put all the extras on them and they never see dirt. i mean come on i live in seattle washington.
i had an 81 toyota 4x4 and it was built for the trails but it was always dirty. these trucks didnt have a spec on mud on them

so my question is. thoes of you who are building 4x4s are you gunna drive them like there built or is it all for the tough look??
