Default Help on angles and composition

Here are some pics that I took of a truck that I detailed today. I need some help with how to pose or stage cars and give them a nice photogenic look. Any tips or critique would be appreciated.

It has very little (surprising!) more noticeable on the tailgate.

1st of awesome truck...that thing reflects like no other...

2nd- there are certain times for extream angles..not every picture is cool because it has a huge angle...sometimes an be very distracting..

so when taking pictures of your car trying to show off how shiny it is, use less angle..its not always fun to turn your head to look at the pics lol...just keep practicing and see what works for u...great pics tho

Always consider your background as well. I know this isn't always possible but having a consistent background and something not so busy will definitely make your photo better as well.
