Hybrid View

  1. #1
    I am keeping the truck because it was her stepdads and he meant alot to both of us and he is gone. that doesnt mean i am stuck with a pig. i have seen plenty of fords with chevy engines. One that comes to mind has a rear decal that says "Ford Tough with Chevy Stuff". that got my passion for a hybrid between ford and chevy. in this day and time its time to just be proud to be american made. face it or not but foriegn manufactured automobiles are really kicking the big 3's ass right now and after they kick the ass they have the gawl to give them a huge Wedgie.

    Nothing is American anymore. Sadly, the tundra and Titan are the two most American trucks out there. If you look at the tundras parts content 80% is American. GM is mostly made in Mexico and Canada and sometimes assembled in America. My last 3 Chevys; 99, 00, and my 02, all had general motors of Canada on the tag inside the door.

    Calm down, I wasn't calling your truck a pig. I'm sentimental too so I understand wanting to keep the truck. Can't even kid around with people anymore without going against the grain.

    They have been the best three trucks I've ever owned. The white one had 185 and some change on the clock and ran great. The kid I sold it to is still driving the piss out of it. That one made it through my dad so it had to be a good truck. He's hell on vehicles especially work trucks.

    It is a bit ridiculous, and quite possibly a waste of 600 bones, but getting the point across to the moron that just cut you off or pulled too close in front of you is worth it eh? What about lighting up the idiot who's texting/talking while driving? I just figure since I'm bagging the truck and will need air anyway, why not start with some obnoxiousness.

    i am not upset. the truck is a pig in comparison to the short bed chevy with a 350 i had before i met my wife. the 302 while a decent engine in mustangs doesn't have the horsepower my grandmother's van has with a 305 in it. i am sentimental to the truck but not its engine. i figure what the hell take something you love and make it the way it should of been. by the way i really like the pictures of your truck if i was buying a new one i would go for one like yours.
    no hard feelings and i can take a joke. the truck nutz was a surprise gift from my wife i put them on my truck as they are not common where i live at and to make my wife happy however after i get it fixed the way i want it i will probably retire them

    Cool, I don't like hurting anyone's feelings and I know exactly where you're coming from. Thanks for the compliments on the truck, I really like it. I bought it pretty much like it is so I can do more with it. As long as we know I wasn't trying to bust your nutz () and just give you a friendly hard time I guess we can all still be friends right? Good luck with the build and keep the old beasty up for the pops! I'm sure he would be proud




    Brad I guess you got a point about the cellphoners, maybe I should be a little more careful with that. I think I'm still gonna get horns though. Stupid young kids and their toys
