The new Chevy fullsize trucks have hit the scene, and right away they’ve been selling like crazy, but we have one complaint — the nasty looking bodyline in the tailgate. Fortunately for us, the sheetmetal wizards at Grant Kustoms have designed a replacement tailgate skin that deletes the tailgate handle and that nasty bodyline. To […]

Give it up for budget rides! With environmental and economic crises making headlines, a fuel-efficient car just makes sense.
