I got this truck a couple week ago. All my guys keep telling me I look like one of those old retired rv'ers

What should I do? Add lift and LED light bars and doze?

Add more chrome.

You know what they say: Chrome gets you home.

Get rid of the chrome on the doors. Get some scratches in the paint.

My truck confirms my manhood. Everyone tells me It looks like an old man drives it.

Unsure of whether to brodoze it out, or get something like a ridgeline to make myself manlier

tell them to STFU and get back to work because their brodozer payments ain't gonna pay themselves.

Don't let your 'guys' give you shit and get you spending pointless money. I'd be interested to know what they drive.

All "your guys" as in, your employees? If so, tell them that signing their paychecks should be enough validation of your manhood to suit them.

Maybe it isn't the truck. . .

It is weird they didn't carry the chrome onto the bed, it makes it look like the bed is off a different truck or something...

I wouldn't worry about it. It is a work truck from the looks of things and a lift kit won't help that.

Level, put some 305's on those wheels, and tint the windows. Done.

old man trucks FTW!

Pressure-wash it with some mud. It'll be fine.

Looks awesome to me. My buddy has the same truck and he's 30.

They all prolly drive Chevy cavaliers

I thought the same thing. Maybe GMC got too cheap and didnt have enough bailout money to buy the rest of the chrome?

Its a GM so you should probably get rid of it.

It's the utility of the long box that makes it look 'old guy'.

Utility beats cosmetics, especially with a truck. Fault not found, carry on old-guying.

The first thing you need to do is go down to the local Home Despot and have a loader bucket worth of pavers dropped in the bed from 8 feet.

I think they would fall straight through that thing. Thats why I have dump trucks

Looks good to me. But then again I'm an old retired guy.

Flames would spice it up a bit

It's those terrible wheels. Looks like they came off a late 90s Lexus.

Posted: 6/21/2016 11:41:19 AM EDT

Add cab lights.

Posted: 6/21/2016 11:42:06 AM EDT

I thought you had to have a shell on the bed to be an old man truck?

I miss my 2500 diesel. Half ton trucks are just (barely) glorified cars nowadays IMO. Although, I have to say my '14 Silverado rides really, really nice.
