Default i salute this truck

those of you that know this will just be a refresher, recently i had to move 300 miles from my home. i couldnt afford a uhaul or anything so i borrowed my dads truck. now mind u this things fugly but it worked perfectly, i had it loaded down so bad that i had to remove the spare tire and hanger cos it was dragging but it never used a drop of oil and didnt ask for anything except gas. was uncomfortable, i got laughed at but it worked its job and hereby i salute it

Here is my old truck after i sold it to my Dad. He drove it for 7 years and when he junked it last year it had 264,000 miles , it had a 2.8 v6. he junked it because the fuel pump went on it.

"Momma always said a bad ride beats a good walk..." (done in my best Forrest Gump impression). I can remember times when I would have proudly drove that truck, and can't say I won't ever drive something like that. A brand new truck could have only done what that one did, and that's get you to where you are going.
