Is that kinda like the mustang vs camaro debate? Or the corvette vs viper debate? Or the import vs domestic debate? A car is just a car too, right?

What i was meaning is that I hear about the truck debates probably 98% of the time rather then the car debates.

So, let's break this down then.

Because you're "annoyed" with truck debating, they should shut the hell up, but any other debates on brand vs brand not regarding a truck type is apparently acceptable.

Sure thing, sparky.

Never said that either. Open your eyes and re-read what I said. Guess I should of been more specific for the feeble.

Because I rarely ever hear about the car debates and when I do it seems like it dies off quickly, yet with the truck ones it seems to keep going and going rather then dieing off quickly. I wasn't talking to anyone specific on this forum, just wanted to randomly post an observation that related to the truck world.

Its all good man, stripes and stuff is kind of a one kind of taste deal, most people like it or they dont, I wanted to try something other than the Ram Air hood, although yours looks clean, white GAs always look pretty nice

I like the door badges on the dash. Might look into that.

I had the GT door badge on my dash. Now it's the chrome and black gt. It looks good.

Please do not. So tasteless.


I've seen people do that before and my only question is, why? Are you afraid you're gonna forget what car you are driving. Only place badges belong is on the outside of the car, or in the trash can.


NikolaCop; a lot of people here will be brutally honest if they don't like your car. Take it as opinions because for the most part that's all they are. If you like your car that's what's important. Of course, don't discount input, especially if you are given some good ideas that you might like.

Me personally, I don't think it's that bad, but there is definitely too much going on as well. I used to have all my interior trim painted red too... got tired of it after a while, but if you still like it that's fine for you. I think the seat covers are too much though, and they look like cheap slip on covers and not actual fitted new upholstery. I've never liked those because, well... they look cheap and people can tell.

Not the biggest fan of that style projector headlight, but they aren't terrible. I don't like the silver hood stripes or the style of the fender hash marks either though. Something about them is weird. You should ditch the mickey mouse mirrors and get a set of paint matched dual posts if you can. Most people do that and it looks much better. Other than looking a little small, I have no problem with the wheels, and the blue brake caliper behind them actually doesn't look that bad. It's an interesting color combo, but it works with black/polished lip wheels.

Biggest thing though is, I'd get rid of that badge on the dash. It just screams tacky and desperate for attention.

I appreciate all the input guys, and I was expecting brutal honesty, I assumed most wouldnt take to kindly to it around these parts, the stripes are actually black, just a bad photo. Yeah I plan on getting the double posted-mirrors because I dont like the "mickey-mouse" alero mirrors, but I appreciate the criticism Aaron, and thanks for the warning Sleepy
