I had mine striped to match my car. Now when I'm forced to trailer the car to events the combo looks much cleaner and respectable.

I do get annoyed with the Daytonas, SS/Ts, and Rumble Bees though - a lot of flash for what is essentially yet another "limited edition" stocker...

i wasn't ranting so much about the performance of the trucks, i have a dakota with a 4.7 and its pretty quick and i love it. I am more annoyed by the stripes that they are putting on them that game directly from the muscle cars like the billboards and the hockey stick stripe. And i think the daytona trucks look ugly as hell with the plastic wing on the back. they might also look better if they came from the factory with a lower stance, not the high 4 wheel drive stance.

Doesn't bother me, some look cool, some don't. What ever tickles your fancy I guess. I think DC is trying to appeal to the younger target market as per the stripes on the original muscle cars that we love and cherish today.

I kind of like the hole thing.  I've had a few different muscle car inspired stripes on my trucks and they've always been well received
