ranchhopper Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 I just cant seem to get why the goofy sunvisors these guys put on trucks with such class. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/43959-maiden-voyage/#findComment-323877 Share on other sites More sharing options...
gearhead204 Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 the driver must be 4 foot something tall in order to see under it! I know I feel like Dino (from the Flintstones) just trying to dive mine with a factory fiberglass one.

Apple dog Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Very nice R model. It would look twice as good if the visor dropped down was half as far. Quote This is Mack country.

HeavyGunner Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 I just cant seem to get why the goofy sunvisors these guys put on trucks with such class.My opinion is those aren't visors, just fugly window covers that severely limits ones vision especially when you sit on the floor to look cool. This to me is a visor and I think this style looks sharp as well as being functional. 2 Quote The problems we face today exist because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by the people who vote for a living.The government can only "give" someone what they first take from another.

Popular Post Superdog Posted February 12, 2016 Author Popular Post Share Posted February 12, 2016 If he likes.I'm ok with that,he fixed the truck up nice and will take care of it,that's what matters to me.. I coulda sold it for more money and had it exported,or turned into a shit tanker,but then I wouldn't be posting pics of it ever again. 9 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/43959-maiden-voyage/#findComment-323910 Share on other sites More sharing options...
