May 2024 ToTM
For our May 2024 Truck of the Month (ToTM) contest the theme is
May-be….. This month’s contest theme is based on those trucks that are rough, rude, crude, and vehicles that are far from show or nice. Here’s the criteria for this month’s contest.
You or someone else may nominate the vehicle. The nominee must be a board member and the current owner of the truck. Once you decide on who you wish to nominate, just add your nomination to this thread. We will need two pictures minimum, at least one full view of the vehicle and one showing the engine. In addition, we will need the owner’s board name and the Make/Model/Year of vehicle. Nominations will run through April 23. The first 15 nominees that meet the criteria will participate in the contest We will need two pictures minimum (at least one full view of the vehicle) with/for the nomination as well as the owner’s board name, the Make/Model/Year of vehicle. I will PM the nominees to get any additional data or pictures if they have not already been provided. If the owner has a preferred picture they want used in the contest, please let me know in a PM. You can PM me for an e-mail address in case anyone has problems resizing the pictures for the board. A Poll Thread will be set up April 24 in this board area and an announcement will be posted on the Discussion Boards to notify all that voting has begun. The Poll will run thru the morning of May 1 and the official announcement of the winner will be on the evening of May 1. The announcement of the ToTM winner will be posted through the General Discussion Board area.

Re: May 2024 ToTM
this ones calling our name! Rusty (the Redneck Rejekt) 1960 Chevrolet C10 Apache - Long Time running Project Color - Primer / Rust / Dove Grey / Implement Gray /Moss Green Looks bad, smells funny, leaks worse - about all you could ask for in a truck! Missing rear bumper, lots of holes for long gone equipment (some partially filled, many not) potentially bullet holes Definitive road force ventilation system ( rust ; floors, roof, anywhere it can) Straight pipes with a side dump exhaust and street sweepers - you can hear us before you see us but the oil leaks will have you remembering us long after we are gone He ain't pretty, but we get where we need to go!

Re: May 2024 ToTM
Not sure if mine meets all the criteria, but never seems to fit any of the other ones either, so here goes anyway! 71 Custom Deluxe, 5.3/4l60e

Re: May 2024 ToTM
I think you're right. I think I've got the best work truck and I'd like to throw it in the ring.
1972 K30 Longhorn 4x4 swapped, Cummins swapped, Cheyenne Super, Custom Camper with rear air ride and 4 link. The truck is definitely showing it's age but is used for heavy work all the time.
