Re: What Kind Of Truck Do You Drive?
I've always liked the blacked out headlights portion of the 1978-79 F-150 grill:

Re: What Kind Of Truck Do You Drive?
Well, maybe this belongs more in the Dogs thread, but this was my faithfull "Nugget" in the back of my first pickup, a 63 Chevy I got for $800. Started with the straight six 292, four on the floor with the granny first, but then I just dropped in a '75 350 V8, bolted right up to the tranny, same engine mounts, amazing. Crappy two-tone paint job I did myself.
  Currently I drive an '03 F250 6.0 diesel, long bed, 4x4, 6 speed auto. That is, when I'm not driving my BMW X3.

Re: What Kind Of Truck Do You Drive?
The B-series mazda isn't "basically" a ranger... It IS a ranger, just rebadged to say Mazda. There may be a couple more very minor things that really don't matter.

Re: What Kind Of Truck Do You Drive?
I could'nt resist, I saw it at a little mom & pop dealership on my way to Lowes last Friday. I love the old F-250 but you just can't beat the powerful pull of a diesel engine when you're pulling things like an excavator or skidsteer.
