Personally I find the things tacky and low class. Every time I see a pair hanging off the back of an enormous truck I think of the old saying about a guy compensating for something, and laugh.

My husband and I were once behind a truck that had not only a pair of those truck nutz, but also a jock strap hanging off them, we were quite puzzled by it.

Never let it be said that in Florida we ignore the important things. Next in the state legislature’s sites: those mudflaps with the nekkid lady silhouettes, and those car decals of a Calvin-like (of Calvin and Hobbes fame) character peeing on… something (on Fords, a Dodge logo, on Dodges, a Ford logo, etc…)

They are just the sort of vehicle enhancement I see in truck stops frequently. They come in some very unauthentic colors – at least, I wouldn’t care for mine to match the variety for sale.

Just a FYI, I don’t have the chrome girls on my mudflaps, either.

I actually saw my first pair this month, and didn’t realize there was a whole industry behind it.

The good news would seem that you can still hang them from other parts of your car.

If you don’t have a trailer hitch on your Pacer, I mean.

Obviously only geldings are welcome in Florida.

It would never occur to me to hang a pair of these on any vehicle of mine. Then again, I don’t even do bumper stickers.

The News Story Otherwise Known As: “How many male-genitalia puns can we fit in two paragraphs?”

I’ve seen the objects in question on people’s trucks around here. Yes, they can be a distraction; it is very tempting to take your eyes off the road to point, laugh, and speculate on what kind of deficiency is being compensated for.
