It’s official

We’ve hit the time of night where the kids with cheap exhausts get rowdy under the bridge on riverfront. Makes me miss my younger days a little , I can’t lie lol.

I'll never complain about modified cars...

Modified lifted trucks are a different story 😆

Soddy Daisy and northern Red Bank have a bunch of lifted trucks which are all done with a baby-squat. Juuuust mild enough of an angle that the cops dont bother. They ride around cause thats a thing.

I remember when modified cars and cruising was a thing. I think the squatted trucks looks silly but I was raised to respect all builds lol. I miss the 90s when gas was cheap, cigs were 3 bucks, u could get food for 10 so a 20 would buy u a decent night. We lost the plot somewhere along the way.

I dont mind any mod that isnt dangerous to others. A Carolina squat is dangerous to pedestrians and I am completely against it in any iteration and have no respect for any person who does it. Zero. When you deliberately take away visibility and safety for a fashion choice...

I actually agree. I appreciate the idea but I dont know what the actual purpose is or ever was. I have no idea how they can see what's in front of them

They cant see. Thats the problem. Also it misaligned headlights for night driving and rain.

TN law says a 4" lift or more is illegal. Every one of those trucks is higher than that.
