I want to make my truck look like an offroading truck whith anteena whips. i dont want to throw tons of money into my 1995 ford ranger, but if its easy and cheap let me hear it!:headbang:
 
Thats the thing i dont really want to lift it. i already have dick cepek mud country. im talking more like big bumoper and lights and antennas.
 
Well then put on "big bumoper and lights and antennas". You know what really completes the "offroad" look? Stick on hood scoops, and chrome louvers, and anyother shiny stick on plastic thing that catches your eye at vatozone. :rolleyes:

Fishnet stockings and a mini-skirt...oh, and high heels...

Aside from that...see above...lol
 
How do big bumpers and antennas help off-road? I was just thinking about an hour ago about cutting the bottom of mine off and re-locating my turn signals - the turn signals and valence hanging down under the bumper are all bent back from climbing snowbanks.
 
If you want a quick "off-road" look that says been there, done that, try rubbing on a couple of big rocks for the hammered rocker panel look and maybe a tree or two for the "had no other choice" look. Otherwise, just go hang out at the local mall parking lot and look at all of the pretty jacked-up, overchromed, penile compensation devices that "townies" think are "off road" trucks.

this is the best advice so far......than after you've done that,

try rubbing on a couple of big rocks for the hammered rocker panel look and maybe a tree or two for the "had no other choice" look.

an off road truck looks like an off road truck by being used off road.

anything else is just a phony poser.and looks the part.
 
no no guys you have it all wrong!
the best way to make your ranger look like a offroad truck is to trade it for a car then let the person you traded it to take it off road and actually use it while you drive the ca, and everyone who knows you thinks its still you in the truck :icon_thumby:

btw if you havent caught their ^^^^ sarcasm that is not such a bright decision.

however offroad trucks look like offroad trucks because they have money and time dumped into the suspension, wheels, tires, drivetrain...... which you dont want to do sooooo?
 
i'm surprised the facepalm han't shown up yet.

Oh. Or you could just want to be a mall-crawler poser? At least some of them lift their trucks.

Hell, I put a body lift and big tires on my old truck and off-roaded the hell out of it.

Body lift: $200
BFG ATs tires/rims: $700
Being more than just a mall-crawler: Priceless

There are some things money can't buy, for everything else, at least you're not the guy sitting on the sidelines.
