Re: lets hear stories about how people dislike our trucks!!
Dan Smith you are on the money my man!
I was given my '71 C-10 by my grandfather (who bought it new in 71) so it will stay with me no matter what. I have cared for it for about 7-8 years now and it has been the most reliable car we have owned. Most people want to buy it! The only negatives have been by ***** ass neighbors over the years. Now we live out in the country and no one says a word... Granted our driveway is usually a mess of cars: 71 C-10, 79 Porsche 911SC, '66 VW Westfalia, '99 Suburban 6.5TD K2500, '96 K3500 Sierra 6.5TD, and the wifes new ride the '05 Escalade ESV. With an Escalade and ratty C-10 in the driveway it confuses people... And I like it that way! The only person that calls me out is one of my wifes good girl friends who is black and says I am a hillbilly and "shouldn't listen to all that twangin' music" (solid gold classic country baby!) It is all in good fun and I get a great laugh out of it... I call her bo' a P.Diddy wanna be so it evens out (actually he is a nice guy but you gotta talk a little trash) ... In summary I am 34 y/o and I could give a rats ass what other people think about me or my ride. I have lived enough adventures and done more than most men will so I feel no need to impress others with a new car/truck/TV/whatever.
