Now I have always heard that "you can till by what a person drives to what kind of a person they are. Like if they drive a pickup that has leftover straw in the bed it may mean they are probably hard working farmer and there vehicle is just a piece of equipment. Or, if they drive a nice car (sedan) and they try to keep it clean, they could be a businessperson and use it as a status symbol. A single man with a flashy sports car are said to be over compensating , well you know.

So the question is, what kind of vehicle do you drive in Oklahoma and can we see it?

To start it off, here is my truck, now just remember that do carpentry work on the side and I like to lock my tools up. I don't drive it off road, so its not a 4WD for going mudding.

Now what type of a person do think I am?

I can't tell you what I'll drive in OK because I can't drive anymore, but I can tell you what I drove in AK. First one I owned was a '47 Chevy 4 speed - definitely a work truck. The bed had rusted out and the guy I bought it from replaced it with 6"x2"s and carried seal hides in it - he was a hunter - and it smelled pretty rank whenever the sun came out. But it was fine as long as it rained. Next was my ex's '69 Bronco, a 4x4, until he decided to buy a new truck for himself, then I ended up with his old Ford F-250 4x4 with locking tool panels and a winch mounted on the front bumper. When I got ready to make a trip down the Alcan, I got a GMC 3/4 ton 4x4, it was still a work truck but got a lot better mileage than the Ford. After I got back, it died once too often and I got PO'd and bought a new ['84] Toyota front wheel drive - very expensive hissy fit, that. Turned out that all that was wrong with the truck was that all the gas had been siphoned out and the fuel pump needed to be re-primed. Eventually I met DH, and I still had the GMC and the Toyota, and he bought a newer Chevy Silverado 4x4 and we parted out the GMC. After spending a winter in Anchorage and going back home, he traded his truck for a mobile home and within 5 months the Toyota died and we sold THAT for parts. Last was a Plymouth wagon [mine, and it had a back seat that folded down so I could haul all the dogs around], and a '91 Chevy 4x4 for him. The Plymouth's crank shaft broke and we parted IT out. Then when we left AK, he sold his pickup to pay for storage fees in advance. All work vehicles, even the Toyota, though it didn't start out that way. And when we left in 2000, there were other Toyotas driving around with pieces of my old one still visible. The engine and electronics were long gone, but the body was perfect and there were a lot of patchwork vehicles there. Mine was the only one of that particular color, so it was easy to spot a door here, or a fender there. And there were a lot of buy/sell/trades over the years - just under the legal limit each year for requiring a dealer's license.

None of them was as pretty as yours, though.

Here in our neck o the woods, we have "go get 'er" farmers.

They are the men who drive pickups with a bale of hay and barbed wire in the bed, and they sit at the store/diner/donut shop and visit with the other farmers, then at 3 or 4 o'clock, they say their wives are just about off work and they have to "go get her".

We have an old 94 chevy pickup for chores and I drive an 03 Honda Accord with 225K miles on it. And neither are clean! Ever! It is pointless to wash our vehicles out here. We live on a dirt road.

I would say you are someone who has some bucks. And it seems like retired military always have brand new shiny pickups. At least out here it does.

One could also try and guess what people drive by what little we know of their "online" personas.

I have seen pics of Pegs monster truck. I would say that behemoth tells tall tales about their lavish lifestyle!!

I don't know what MK or Synopse drive, but I would say Synopse's vehicle is very utilitarian... like a an off-white corolla or sedan with no frills. MK would have at some time owned a van full of tools and odds and ends.

Not really on the big bucks there redbird. You might say that this truck cost a couple of appendages, but not an arm or a leg.
It actually cost me part of my left hand after it had gotten torn-up under a faulty piece of equipment owned by Werner Trucking company and I had lost two fingers . Needless to say the Military had no use of me after 21 years of service and forced me to retire 3 yrs early.
But I do wish I had the big bucks, SO BJB123 I COULD GET OUT OF OHIO AND MOVE TO OKLAHOMA "NOW!!!!"
