^ I don't own a truck, but the few times I've had to rent or borrow one to load it up full of something by myself or with the help of friends were just about always A GOOD DAY.

It either means, new TV, couch or mattress or helping a friend move or cleaning up or out something that desperately needed cleaning out or towing home a new project car. Either way, the sense of something new and the accomplishment to go with it made driving either a new, old, beat up or pristine half ton, 3/4 or 1 ton diesel dually all the more satisfying.

Yeah, it meas something is getting done. And I have friends that are in line to borrow its services now, too.

Yeah, project cars, parts cars, race cars. and now we can get a new, larger travel trailer and retire the Range Rover from towing duties (possibly trading that in on a Mini Cooper S).

My dad owns one of these



And he honestly wants this to be my first car. I love cadillacs, but I wouldn't be caught dead in that thing. I'm surprised it's still running...

Thats a fresh Caddi. Just keep it in good condition and it won't look like a hoopty. If you don't want it to look like an old persons car then hook it up a bit. Some vogue wheels and tires would look good on that

A Hummer-eeuuww! Also the new "muscle cars" or any car with NASCAR stuff on it. Old Mustangs are cheesey too.

With those, and the XB cars, when I see them, I keep wondering when the clowns are going to start jumping out.

No way the SRT4 kicked ass. It did not look like a chick's car. I'm hoping they do an SRT4 Dart in the future.

I have my preferences like anyone else, but I wouldn't be embarrassed to be seen in any car. I outgrew that sort of thing shortly after high school.

I would be a little embarrassed to be standing next to the car - any car - along the side of the road waiting for a tow truck, though.
