I think i have a few worthy opponents...

Contestant #1 Indio, Ca... Whoever did this is going to straight to hell.







Contestant #2, from San Bernardino, Ca... This car isn't "fast" and it's making me "furious".

the wing thing, is very functional, it allows wind to go up and over the trailer, so it is not smacking the top of the trailer and slowing the truck down, making it work harder and lose mpg's
hence the whole dualie part
but the stickers are a little much

I got a bunch of more photos to upload still. There never seems to be a lack of ricers in the neighborhood. Working at a community college seems to put me in great photo op territory for these people. (shakes head) so sad.

im not sure if any one noticed but this truck with its giant wing has no trailer hitch to hook up the trailer that would need him to have the giant wing in the first place ? unless it has some hidden 5th-wheel somewhere? but , regardless, the wing may serve a purpose i still say its tasteless and therefore technally "tater"

Most of the duallies with wings haul large trailers, therefore a fifth wheel is more practical and probably mounted in the bed and out of site unless the tailgate is down.

That's the Lotus Exige, more performance-oriented version of the elise. The wing is standard and the car looks amazing. You can also notice the carbon fiber side scoops, the wing is CF too.

Aka, doesn't belong in the thread!

that's also the performance version of the Exige, not the "base" model (like Exige has a base model) the regular one doesn't have the black (not C/F, I just saw one up close last week) wing or side scoops. the one I saw was all white and flat black. as much as i don't like to bag on xpeoplex, the Exige is NOT a "pos" and deff does not belong here.

I dont know if anyone noticed but right under the rear bumper is a little black box shaped thing...whats that called?? hmmm a reese hitch maybe??. Plus like was said before its more than likely a 5th wheel and ive never seen a wing for trailers that is tasteful, but they sure do help on gas mileage and wind noise, not to mention travel speed.

Didn't want to be mean or anything, just wanted to make sure everyone knew.

I wish I had one of those so badly.
