Despite the cold, trucknuts don't shrivel even in Canadian winters!

And yes, they really do look stupid.

One truck I saw, was a duellie, jacked up so high that if he took at corner at 5mph, it'd roll on it's side...stupid trucknuts flapping as it went down the highway...

I've seen that truck several times actually, I think the guy lives just a mile from me. One time my buddy was with me and we saw it and just burst out laughing!

One day I hope to get a pic of it...I'll post it here.


But as for hardcore Canadian rednecks, that's nothing, you should see the trucks with the Confederate flag and 'don't tread on me' flags, with Canadian plates! Doesn't happen often, but I've seen at least 10 Confederates, and 1 or two "tread" stickers...and no, I'm not talking about Washington State registered cars either! biggrin

Wow, that is both bizarre and surprising to me. That would be like me seeing pickup trucks in Florida with a "Free Quebec" license plate on them.

There are a variety of colors as well. I saw something in lime green the other day.

No need to mention that they are alive and well in rural VA.. I've seen so many of those around that you can begin to discern the quality of workmanship after awhile - or rather how much one spent for the bigger set.. biggrin

The Stars and Bars are still a pretty popular icon of choice - no matter where you are.
