So what? Everyone is entitled to do whatever they want to their own personal property. Because you don’t like it, it’s abuse?
In the past I’ve been the recipient of this attitude in PM, I had a lovely member call me a vandal and a few other “choice” names for building my Blazer to my liking.
Threads like this are why the custom builders stay away from this site. Most of them have moved to other formats like Instagram. The op posted a link to a well built custom truck. And it didn’t take more than a few posts for members to start whining about cutting up a stock truck. Some people modify for the better some for the worse, it doesn’t matter, it’s their personal property. I have mentioned to a few local guys about joining the site, the usual response goes something like this “ already joined, lots of great info but too many complaints about customs so I don’t post or really go on anymore”
For the most part this site is absolutely awesome. I’ve been a member for a long time and a lurker for a lot longer. But attitudes like this just ruin it. At this rate, eventually this place will be about as fun as the HAMB.
