Custom truck lovers, it doesn't matter that the whole world might seem to be against you, you will not be forgotten at this year's SEMA. Performance West will be bringing a hotted up F-150 and F-350, and now Street Scene Equipment rumbles onto the stage with it's own entrant, a juiced up 2009 F-150 Lariat.
The SSE job appears to be a little more subdued than the Performance West numbers, but that might just be down to the lack of racing stripes. The Lariat will of course be dropped, because you can't even call it a tuning job if the truck is more than an inch above the ground. After that, the exterior gets new front and rear bumpers and skirts, new mirrors, a bed cap, a tailgate wing, and some of DuPont 's Hot Hues to make it all shiny, among other things.
Inside will be the standard rolling theater treatment: headrest video monitors and a "high-end infotainment system" from Audio Innovations. In keeping with the restrained theme, engine mods looks to be limited to an Air Raid intake and a new exhaust. Subtle ain't such a bad thing, though -- we gotta admit we're digging that grille.

This is the most uncoolest type of Vehicle ever , hoted up no such thing a pickup truck is just a van . A pick-up truck was never cool . When ever i see this stupid truck i think of broke back mountain . Hatchbacks and coupes are sexy this is not . Bigger is worser not better .

You're like , what , 14? We get it you don't like trucks, you like hatchbacks. Great. I do too, but fortunately I have a broad enough sense of gearheaded-ness to understand pretty much all forms of auto-erotica.
Which this truck is not - good stance, but the grill foglights and the front valence don't work.

Grill mounted auxiliary lights? Seriously?
That's something people do in their driveway with parts from Pep Boys.

How small must a guy's dick be to be seen in this. This is humiliating.
