Too bad it wasn't a longhorn into a Jimmy...

Re: Longhorn cut down to short box

This falls into the same category as I see crew cab duallies being slammed to the ground with the frames cut up for a C notch. My take is an abomination and a desecration of a good truck. But it's your money and your truck. I cringe as I've still got 1 longhorn left I haven't sold---yet

My dually still tows things like a dually. I'm not going to drive it out into a field w/a trailer but I never did that w/it @ stock height either. Some of those lowered crew-cabs are still functional.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

I kinda hope they cut up a long horn.
But probably a c50


Keep in mind I have a stretched shortbed C10 so my opinion is really skewed
