I love my truck!
I have had some vehicles that I really liked before... but I got to where I hated driving, but now I drive my 72 suburban 75 miles everyday round trip to work.
when I get home, I don't want to stop. I just keep on driving, take the long way etc... any body else have these feelings of euphoria when driving their trucks? or am I crazy?

I usually get the feeling that I'll be stopping at the next gas station. What the heck I can draw a crowd there too.

I call it "loafing" just get in the truck and ride the back roads, looking for other old trucks.

Even the import drivers turn to look at it, although they probably have no idea what it is.

It is called "PRIDE". I know I love driving my '70 Burb and watching all those heads turn. I much rather drive the Burban than our new jeep. You do not see heads turn in the jeep. (and it is new) I also love driving my other two toys. Much more fun than the Liberty.
