One is bare metal silver like they forgot to paint it.The other was completely painted with a local company logo & listing all the products they offer. Sure, that will get people's attention on the road, but seems a bad idea to advertise just how stupid you are if you wanna stay in business. It's not like work equipment could be packed in or on that insane excuse for a pick-up truck.

Have seen both of those abominations several times now; can't decide which one is uglier. The way people drive around here, blowing thru red lighs at 20-30 MPH over the speed limit, and how many big dips we have in roads (to channel monsoon downpurs off roads) I can't see those two pretend trucks lasting long here.
