  • Soon to be banned in Florida (perhaps), lampooned on NPR and sold by these folks. (And these, and these. Among others.)

  • Holy mackerel.

    *stunned*

    Learn something every day. Thanks for all these links, Asat! Now I know what that stupid thing is hanging off that guy's truck down the street--and that there's a name for it.

    I especially liked this portion of the article at your first link: "Sen. Jim King, R-Jacksonville, said ... They are no more than 'an expression of truckliness,' ... although he'd acceded to his wife's request to take them off."

  • Umm, what do gals decorated their trucks with?

    April 27, 2008

  • Truck titz? Of course, they don't dangle--they kind of hang out around where the headlights are.

    April 28, 2008

  • But they don't have nipples. Ask palooka.

    April 28, 2008

  • If they're female trucks, they sure as hell do. *gets all belligerent*

    April 28, 2008

  • Oh. Right. But wouldn't the, er, mammaries be on the undercarriage? Just askin'.

    April 28, 2008

  • Why? Mine don't hang that low. *double-checking*

    April 28, 2008

  • What, they're stuck on your shoulders? You're a quadruped, after all.

    April 29, 2008

  • They still don't hang THAT low. I mean, really. Think of a Corvette, for heaven's sake! They'd have to call me Sparky!

    April 29, 2008

  • *choking*

    April 29, 2008

  • *can't breathe*

    April 29, 2008

  • *tries to find somewhere to look*

  • I was thinking about truck nutz on my way home from work last night, and something got me really steamed. Someone's little kid says "Daddy, what are those?" about truck nutz, he becomes embarrassed and instead of thinking of something clever like, "they're toys that some people use to decorate their trucks," he decides to try to make them illegal.

    Now, suppose said child saw some mud flaps with those outlines of chesty naked women on them and said, "Daddy, what are those?" Do you think said daddy would have been embarrassed? Do you think daddy would campaign to make them illegal? And why is that? Don't two stupid things make one smart thing?

    It's time for truck titz, I tell you. Bring them on and let the gender fairness fly!

    April 29, 2008

  • *runs in late*

    I'm with you, c_b: I think the idea of truck titz is teh alsome.

    I think my favourite part of that first article is "Bull genitalia is currently in fashion."

    April 29, 2008

  • what about booby flaps?

    April 29, 2008

  • I could go for booby flaps.

    No, I really can't. I just said that to see how it would sound.

    But c_b, I'm with you on the Chesty Naked Woman Flaps. Someday, cars will actually come with their own human anatomical parts, so you can choose between a male or female vehicle. You watch. It's bound to happen--and I hope I'm too old to drive by then.

    April 29, 2008

  • quid pro quo (tit for tat)?

    April 29, 2008

  • reesetee: Niiiice.

    Seriously, I am so not down with the chesty naked woman mud flaps. I can't believe someone would get so upset over truck nutz as to try to make them illegal, and wouldn't even bat an eyelash at those damn offensive mud flaps.

    *starting to think Thelma & Louise had it right. Grrrrr...*

    April 29, 2008

  • *looks around* What's that rattling chain sound??

    April 29, 2008

  • Oh dear. Booby flaps, truck titz, Sparky the Corvette What haf I wrought?

    May 2, 2008

  • OMG, yesterday I was talking to a co-worker I don't see all the time, who told me that another co-worker was thinking about creating some eighteenth-century truck nutz out of chain shot and soldering them onto a third co-worker's truck, reasoning that third co-worker will never bend over far enough to see that they're there and we can all secretly laugh about it later.

    The thought of making chain shot into truck nutz is just way too tempting for me. I might ask him to make me a pair.

    May 2, 2008

  • Sure, easy for you 18th-century guys. You have chain shot just lying around there. What about us 21st-century people? What can we do to spice up our automobile undercarriages?

    May 2, 2008

  • Uhh... I don't know. ... Tape dispensers?

    May 2, 2008

  • Just saw my first pair of Truck Nutz today. The truck was black, which I suppose is a truckly color, but the Nutzs were silvery and sparkly. It was very festive.

    As I type this, I'm discovering that what offends me about Truck Nutz, more than anything else, is the spelling.

    December 7, 2010

  • Agreed, ptero. Though I must admit I haven't seen many Nutz in these parts.

    I should rephrase....

    December 7, 2010

  • I have never seen truck nutz; I must live in a city of eunuch trucks.

    December 7, 2010

  • A city of Ford Castratos and Dodge Ram Orchidectomies.

    December 7, 2010

  • Count yourself lucky, my friend.

    December 7, 2010

  • Yes, lucky you, yarb...

  • Here's a link to a helpful illustration from the blog of the frog.

  • When I read this Wondermark comic I was pleased that I had already heard about truck nutz here first. Don't know why really, but I guess it confirmed that I learn so much here...
