I have an extended bed.

Oh Man!
I have a Dodge Quad cab , but, I have 3 kids, dirt bikes, and NEED a big truck so..uuummmm, it ain't true, ya know, what the article says, its practical for me to have a big truck , yea that's it..its practical...besides I use the R for all my commuting, 100 miles a day, most people at work don't even know I own a truck, drove it to work one day and everyone said " did ya get a new truck"...nope..just never drive it, unless there's a dirt bike in the back.

We were all foolish idiots when we were college aged youngsters. The especially self-righteous and most foolish were the 'serious' members of the student journalistic bent.

I have a big truck but now I think I'll also buy one of the last Excursions. Can't never have enough places to hang them flags of heritage.

I cannot afford a big truck because I spend all my money on women. What does that mean?

I don't like big SUV's, either, but I have one. We have a GMC Yukon XL Denali, but what else can we drive to hold a family of six (soon to be seven), our luggage, groceries or other stuff, and occasionally a large dog? Also, I need AWD because I live on a big hill in the "snow belt" of New Jersey.

Based on all those requirements, we narrowed it down to just a few vehicles. We got the best deal on the GMC. I has a nice ride, navigation system, good sound system, and heated seats. Yes, those heated seats are really a great thing in the winter.

I drive a SUV...but it's a really really small one...(the SUV )...and have a sticker on the back that says..If this car's a rockin' don't come a knockin'

DJ..I had one of those if those" If this van's a rocking don't come a knocking" on my van in the late 70's. Right next to it I had one that said" Don't laugh it could be your daughter"

DJ, you do NOT have that sticker, do you?

jamming, THAT is a funny sticker.

Yes Scott I was just kidding...but my first car was a panel van (see pic) http://uniquecars.carpoint.ninemsn.com. ... ub/02b.jpg

They were very common down under..and sometimes called a 'shaggin' wagon'.

And both those stickers that Jamming mentioned were on the back of most of them...

F250 Lariat Diesel Big trucks rawk

No big truck here. But I did have a VW microbus when I was in college!

DJ, all I have to say about those 'cars' is...

definitely different. That black one looked like a funeral hearse!

The rear tops looked like they were an afterthought, though. but heck, who can deny more room to boogie?!?!

I have a 2003 Ford F350 SuperDuty extended cab dually with the 7.3 Powerstroke Diesel. Full "Banks" power upgrades and 6 speed manual trans. The 450 rear wheel HP pulls my 12,000 lb 35 ft 5th wheel up any Colorado mountain with ease.

Too funny Randy...it is Randy isn't it...or is that just what they call you...and is that why you walk bent over like that...

chevy express 3500 extended wheelbase with a 12200lb towing capacity thankyou

OK - I had a Chev S-10, then an extended cab Chev S-10, and I now drive a full size Chev Silverado with a long bed. Does it seem that as I get older, my trucks are getting longer? That must mean something that I probably don't want to know........
