Depends, some are nice, others are over the top. Its nice if the handle is chrome but the bezzle is color matched to the body.

It doesn't ruin my day at all.
In fact I get a kick out of it because I get to laugh at the person who actually thinks that they are cool.

The fake testicles are worse because it's usually grown men doing it while more often than not it is teenagers with the exhausts who will most likely grow out of that phase.

I'm pretty sure I would reevaluate my friendship with someone with the truck nutz on their vehicle - it's in the same zone as finding out your buddy is a misogynist or racist or other kind of throwback to stupider times.

That being said, at least truck nutz aren't waking me up at 3 AM for no other reason than sheer self-centredness. It's a good thing I don't own a sniper rifle or there'd be dead idiots in bullet-riddled cars littering 5th Ave every weekend.

Meh, I am sure the novelty will wear off at some point but I still think they are funny. I never once said I thought they were 'cool'. They are purely for my entertainment, same reason someone would wear a shirt from tshirthell.com.

Even my mum, a religious british lady, thinks they are funny. When we are meeting somewhere she is able to tell if I have been there for a while based on if my nuts are still swinging.

The worst truly is the punks driving Dodge SX 2.0 cars, with massive spoilers and the fart cans. Who are they trying to impress? Hey, I drive a 4 cylinder car as well. I know it isn't fast. I didn't buy it for its speed. So why do these losers try and make their cars look like they can fly down the road? Morons.

Yeah, I'll admit that the first one I saw made me chuckle.
Then I saw another and I thought it was silly.
Then I saw about 100 more and now I think they are about as cool as Calvin Peeing on a car logo.

I'm not going to lie to you, when I see one now, I instantly assume I am MUCH cooler than the guy that has it.

First off, props for even admitting that you own them.

Honestly, when I first saw them a while ago I thought it might be a "gay" thing. Could of sworn I saw a rainbow sticker accompanying a set of bullocks once or twice... Not that there is anything wrong with that.

I assume in your case it's not a gay thing?

I think the testicle trucks are worse. Mostly because I don't think we have "fartpipe" cars down here, at least not that I've seen.

My single friends say they figure guys with testicles hanging from their bumper are probably unsatisfying so they can rule them out pretty quickly. I just think they look stupid and vulgar.

My first impression of those truck nuts things came from an article that said they were super popular in Edmonton. So I'm going on the assumption that Boblobla has a mullet and is married to his sister.

I think I'd give the nod to the truck balls being worse. Straight up I'd say fart cans are worse than truck balls for sure, but the odds of the truck balls being on a raised diesel pickup with a massive side exit exhaust that will fill my open drivers window with soot when it's driver floors it off the line at every light are much higher.

Plus said raised diesel truck has potentially to actually be pretty quick, and when it's careless driver is involved with a head on with me It will probably shear the roof of my car off as well as my torso.

The fart can is annoying, but odds are the guy is slow, small and lowered, so he'll just bounce right off and you'll be okay.

I actually have an exhaust on my current car. I chose it specifically because it sounds the exact same as stock under normal driving conditions, and you only hear it when the throttle is opened up. I bought it both for performance reasons and because it does sound pretty good when you open it up. I have a Euro V8 (DOHC, not pushrod like American V8's) so I wanted to keep the quiet, refined sound and it doesn't sound like a muscle car at all. People that don't know cars would never even know I had it, and that's the way I like it.

My car sounds like a fartpipe.... Not because I think it's cool but because I ran over something in the winter and something (different from the previous something) dislodged the pipe from the motor.... Anyone have a blowtorch? We can tack it back together!

The handy thing about it is that my girlfriend can hear my car coming from a block away and is always ready when I pick her up. Nothing is better than not waiting!

Oh... Boblobla. I was going to go ahead and post how the truck nuts are way worse and all the people that have them MUST be such redneck ######bags. But to my horror reading through the thread I saw that you put them on your truck, so I can't really say that. In fact, you've now ruined the truck nut stereotype for me (kind of... I think the redneck still applies ).

That being said, I still think trucknuts are worse than the fartcan things.

And DESS, I live on a REALLY busy street. And I don't have air-conditioning so my windows are open in the summer. The fartcans and choppers are WAY worse then barking dogs. Sorry.

Am I really the only person who came in here thinking you were about to exact revenge on a passed out buddy? I was also excited to learn how to fart-pipe somebody.

This thread=Disappointment.
