Yessssssss!!! I can't say I understand it, or that its tasteful, but, wow, is dekotora awesome.
Chrome. Lights. Custom art. And it’s a truck, too. Meet the dekotora, Japanese for decoration truck: giant, kitted-out rigs influenced by “Torakku Yaro,” a ’70s Japanese comedy-action movie series.
If you slide in with a Dekotora rollback hauling a Bosozuku Cresseda on the back, you will rule all car shows for all time.

Yeah, dekotora is truly awesome.
I'm waiting for the Facebook post where he has dekotora'd the Renegade.
I don't have any pictures, but a chromed up Peterbilt may be the beginnings of this. It's like the X-Files they're out there.
People know me so well. You can never have too much chrome or too many lights. I've been told I can't dress up the Renegade too much since it's not mine but I have been looking at Kei trucks to "go to the lumber yard" and such. Surprisingly many of these trucks are working trucks even with all the add-ons. I can't read any Japanese so info is hard to come by but two Twitter accounts I follow that regularly have shiny Japanese truck content are:
