Me too. I had a crewcab dually in '81. It was cool and did nothing. Chrome wheels and lots of running lights. Well, it did haul some karts and I am a contractor.
Hilarious. |

Count me in...
1-ton dually. 4 doors, and it's a diesel! All that, and it only seats 4 people. ![]()

I love diesel trucks. If I had need for it, I'd have one.

I'm not really a fan of pickups either (used to own one, glad to be rid of it to be honest) but if that's what someone likes and wants to drive? *shrug* whatever. Your money and your gas bill - whatever thrills ya.
I finally got rid of the silly SUV I'd inherited and think I might get a used Jeep Wrangler. All the fun and advantage of a 4x4 when I need it; none of the extra weight and lousy gas mileage of a big truck. I kinda like 'em. Can't haul as much as a pickup or SUV but I can always rent one if I'm in a spot (seldom) or just get delivery (building materials, landscaping stuff like gravel or sand or whatever). Different strokes. Drive whatever the heck you like - life's too short. Somewhere I have a photo of a guy with one of those supposed "butthole indicators" with vertical stacks and a big-azz back window sticker reading "prius repellant" with an arrow pointing to each stack. Hilarious! |

Hey, I won't lie about the MPG, 8.
That would be uphill, downhill, headwind, tailwind, loaded, empty, city, highway. 454 with a 4 bbl. Yeah, its diet cost more than mine. |

The fuel mileage is not why I sold it though. It did not have overdrive, and although it would go 80 mph, the motor was singing pretty good at that speed, and long distance road trips were a nuisance.

I'm sorry for my use of diesel fuel. I use this truck for work, racing, and usually as my daily driver. I'm amazed that a truck that can haul my forty foot, two car enclosed trailer across the county can also get me to the grocery store.

![]() I've talked to a number of buttholes that claim 25 MPG is easy with a few mods on any modern turbo-diesel trucks.

Norm's okay, even if I disagree with him 99% of the time... Okay back to the topic at hand... Butthole, small penis, gold rope chains... seems like a pattern of car envy

WOW, I guess I'm a "butthole" too! Maybe the biggest. I drive my mog just about everyday, but I don't always have a load in the bed, or the trailer hooked up. I even take it to go to the grocery store, when the wife ask!
