    My entire business is turning gasoline into the money I need to live, f350 work truck included. Got really lucky finding a 5.4 in the 1 ton frame, 25 years old, and it’s still an absolute dog on fuel. And now I also have the shame of people thinking the truck is because my dick is little, which I feel any time I don’t have equipment on a trailer. At least I kept the Subaru for groceries?

      No one cares about old trucks, and very few people are hating on them here

      Its the new pavement princesses catching the smoke here, and intentionally blowing it in peoples faces irl

        That’s good because I can hardly drive it around how frequently something or other breaks. Hood latch return spring was the culprit this morning.

        That. That is fucking sexy! Is it a fuckin cabover!? I bet it gets amazing mileage. Guy I work with has a Mitsubishi flatbed for a spray truck, little 4cyl turbo diesel lugs around 500gal of water no problem.

      You may be able to offset that judgement by keeping your truck slathered in mud and always having at least five ladders hanging off it. Says, “Shut up, I actually use this!”

          Honestly just having the bed be dinged and/or dirty is plenty to me.

          It’s absurd the number of trucks I’ve seen where the bed liner looks brand new, never used, on a 5-10 YO vehicle. No body damage, not even a scuff on the tailgate.

          Sure it IS possible to regularly use a truck as a truck and be so careful as to not cause any damage, but it’s incredibly unlikely.
