The van is pretty funny, and a joke I'm sure but what is wrong with that truck? It's obviously used for towing something, maybe a third wheel, an in bed camper, or something else, and that spoiler DRAMATICALLY decreases wind resistance. That's why 18-wheelers have an angled roof over the cab, to help the wind flow over the trailer. Now, the ONLY credit that I will give you is that the racing flag is a little tacky but they help keep the interior cool in the summer, much like window tint. Maybe you shouldn't attempt to bash things of which you know nothing about.

These days, so many people put those "R"/"Type R"/"GT-R" emblems on as a joke more than anything else. So it's hard to tell if that's the case. But if the guys not joking, then you are right.. that's definately retarded! -Josh |

They've been putting bodykits on trucks for a long time. I use to see more bodykits on trucks than anything else. My dad's buddy has one on his dualy. He uses it for pulling a cattle trailer.
EDIT: I also do not see what's wrong with the van. And just for the thought, I put a Ford truck emblem on my old Geo Storm just to mess with people. I thought it was funny when people would walk by the car and then take a double take with a confused look on their faces. I had a guy ask me, "Is that the new Probe or something?" It amused me.

for those pondering about the van: on the left side of the liftgate, there's a "Type R" badge from an integra stuck there.

the van is pretty bad, but the truck is just using the wing to deflect air for a big trailer so it does not have to deal with all the extra drag.

QUOTE true.. but i don't see a trailer being pulled... ummm, let's use some common sense here..... I highly doubt he's going to UNBOLT the wing from his cab just because he isn't towing something right at that moment. So, you've never seen an 18 wheeler that wasn't pulling a trailer? Come on now..

i once put a badge "Honda Accord" on the back of the celi with some weak scotch tape and then made a 4 hour drive to redmond oregon. my friend did the same thing to his 97 celi but put Honda symbols (2 of them) on the back corners. yes we're doing it for a joke, both of my symbols flew off right when we got to the desert cuz no one for miles and i hit 115... or 120.. w/e its slow.
