I first noticed a pair in the parking lot at Parkland College, hanging from the back of a fire-engine red Ford F150. If you’ve been paying attention to the trucks on the road, you may have seen them too — in between all the two-dimensional vinyl ribbons and the Calvins urinating on rival sports teams and other truck brands — a pair of bull testicles, uncannily realistic, hanging from a truck’s hitch, right below the license plate.
Depending on the manufacturer, these backside decorations are called "bulls balls," "truck balls," "bumper nuts" or "truck nutz," and they come in a surprising variety of colors and sizes.
