Low rider trucks may be pickups, but they’re not meant to haul dirt, nor are they off road vehicles. Old school rims…custom interiors with unique upholstery…custom paint jobs with numerous thin layers of varying colors, metal flakes and hand-painted graphics…driver-controlled hydraulic pump systems…these machines will make you re-think the definition of the word “truck”.
Of course, low rider trucks (and mini-trucks) have lowered suspensions like other classic low riders, and often unique body modifications, powerful custom sound systems – everything you never imagined seeing in a pickup or van. The key is the low suspension, but some other characteristics are often found: loads of chrome and/or gold details, custom exhausts, and let’s not forget those whitewalls (often spoked) that tuck under the wheel well to give the lowest possible ride.
Ultimately, low rider trucks (and the whole lowrider culture) are about self-expression. If a tricked-out show truck with wild flame graphics is your taste, go for it. If you like a more traditional look look that just happens to be lowered, then that’s you. It’s the classic, cool, low-to-the-ground profile that really defines low rider trucks. Check it out:
