What Is Your Favorite Pick Up Truck New Or Old?
Hi guys and gals. I enjoyed the thread about the wagoons. There was a lot of good comments in there. It seems to have cooled a bit although there are a lot more cool wagons that no one discussed.
In this thread I would like to know what your favorite trucks are. I guess it doesn't have to be a pick up. Post pics and tell us why you like the particular truck you are posting about. It can be new or old, domestic or foreign. Thanks guys.

My favorite would be a '73-79 Ford F series truck. My dad had oen with a 302 and a C6 auto when I was a kid, and I guess it left an impression. I'm halfway lookign for one right now actually. They were the best looking truck ever built ,and very durable. Lots of them are still roaming aorund today.
Want a long bed myself... just avoid the 351M like a plague.

That's a tough decision. It would either be the '57 Chevy PU or the '52 Ford PU that I've owned. I guess I would have to go with the '52, but only because it was more of a project so I appreciated it more once it was done. I referred to it as a 'Fordolet' because I put a 327/Powerglide drive train in it. The engine was bored .030 over, had a mild cam in it, 'double hump' fuelie heads, an offy intake and Holley carb. A set of long tube headers dumping into a pair of 'purple horny' mufflers took care of the exhaust. The dash was painted two-tone orange and white and the headliner/door panels were the same two-tone colors in diamond tuck naugahyde. The body was painted two-tone grabber orange and white. It had Cragar 15x10 SS mags with 60 series tires on the rear and 15x7 with 70 series tires on the front. It was a blast to drive, especially to the drive-ins on Friday or Saturday night or the A&W for a burger and shake.
