Country boys really love their pickup trucks.  Whether they are boggin, hauling stuff around town, or just out hanging with friends, their truck is like a status symbol.  I know from experience as I live in a small town and grew up around a bunch of “good ol’ boys.”

As opposed to cars, pickup truck accessories are less about looks as they are about functionality.  The most common accessory that you will see on is a truck tool box on the back of a truck.  For some, this is a stylish accessory, but for many this is a necessity for all the tools that they must carry around.  Even if a person doesn’t have a lot of tools, a tool box can serve as a place to store items in the back so that they don’t rattle around the truck bed. 

Another common, and even annoying, accessory is hella lights.  These are typically fog lights that are used to increase visibility but many people will use them even when there isn’t any fog out.  They are very bright and when used improperly can be annoying to other drivers.

Regardless of the type of truck, most of the time you will see that functionality rules a truck owner’s decision when accessorizing his truck.
