I believe you are referring to the disdain being shown when it's a bling machine because it's not being used "as it's supposed to be"

But when muddy & not showing its bling, i've never had carloads of college girls holla out a window or ask us to follow them around.
so whatever, both ways are fun. I enjoy the bad attention as much - although differently - as the good. If you ever do anything really worth doing, somebody is going to dislike it. Just think back to the reaction to the cutest girl you ever dated/married.
shrug. the truck is alot of fun, both in the real world and pondering the wildness of cyberspace, although i do fear i bore you guys sometimes with the latter.

Re: Black it out!
but - and this is just a personal preference - i'd rather throw myself directly into the mouth of H2 hysteria than run from it. So i leave the truck muddy to enjoy that for a few days & then polish it to a day-glo sheen.
Bring the madness, i say.

Re: Black it out!
Well I am almost there. Got the front LineX 'd (brush guard and grill) and love it!
Fuel door will be here any day.
Rims I can't part with so I have to make some factory alloys black soon.
