To be specific, Truck Nuts. (Link to local story)

I've seen these around, and... I think they look stupid. Any opinions?

The grassroots truck nuts are golf balls in the toe of a stocking

Believe me, if I were sporting blue balls, the world would not have to know.

Haha! Oh dear, now I have visions of them coming from an "anatomically correct" sock monkey (think "Kia" Commercial).

I think truck nutz are the single most tasteless product ever conceived, and I can't imagine the depths of repressed impotence and overcompensation that would lead someone to put them on his vehicle.

When they outlaw TruckNutz, only outlaws will have TruckNuts.

You can have my balls when you pry them from my cold, dead fin... wait, that one doesn't work quite as well.

Personally, I think they're REALLY stupid, and if relative size is any factor, those trucks have REALLY small nootz.

sigh Another do-gooder with good intentions. If she's worried about her children seeing an obviously fake pair of nuts hanging from a car, will she never take her kid to the zoo?? I think these things are tacky, but who am I to tell someone else what they can and can't put on their car as long as it doesn't hurt me?

I always laughed hysterically at them, and would usually loudly comment on how little they were.

Si, they are stupid. Still... anyone who is uptight at the "indecency" of children seeing something that drags along behind approximately 50% of all 4 legged mammals on earth might address their repressed sexual issues before foisting yet another ridiculous law on the rest of us.

In the meantime, I'm working on the TruckVagine so some of those trucks sporting blue balls can get some relief.

I always thought they were really stupid and tasteless too.. but I think the majority of SUVs are already like that and so are a majority of their owners.

Of course this brings up a question that has been in the back of my mind for years... why do guys in public restrooms always draw penises on the walls?

"VAG-COM is the first aftermarket VAG-Tool..."

I beg to differ.

sometimes, people just do stuff to their cars just to get people like you to react.. i don't think that anyone with these balls dangling from the back of their vehicle actually thinks they look good..

Two basketballs in a pillowcase tied to the hitch. Let it hang real low so everytime you go over a speed bump they get knocked up in the air. I might do this someday.

I've seen a couple of trucks with big (3 1/2"), REAL, nuts hanging from a short length of chain. Thought that was a bit more kool.

I always find it funny when some of the first advice on the VW forums when you ask about hop ups is to get VAG. So, ummmmm wait, you mean I can get VAG WITHOUT having to put 195's on 10" wide wheels with -20 degrees of camber? Wow, they just saved me lots of money!

My son tried to explain urinal ediquette to his fiance, a psychiatrist (almost)

Really? So you can't pee with someone standing next to you?

Well, there are rules.....

The only thing more stupid than putting testicles on your truck is some idiot politician "working" on a law to make them illegal!

I bought some as a joke and hung them on the Moonbuggy as a joke on the team lead. He then "borrowed" them and hung them on my Civic. I didn't notice for a couple weeks.

I've been trying to come up with a quick addition to trunknutz that might cause a short guffaw. Perhaps using something like this: http://www.alibaba.com/product-free/105917720/burdizzo_castrator.html
