There never was, and never will be anything wrong with 80-86... These trucks don't need dumb names.

My truck needs a name, not the model. I'm firmly in the "Bullnose is stupid" camp.

I don't really mind the "Bullnose" name, just don't see why it's called that. But I've never been into naming my rides, just don't see the reason for it. Guess that's why I couldn't come up with a really creative one when I filled out my profile.

Really, Wulff? Either you have a very short memory, or you are being bull-headed again.

I have seen the term used a few times for both the "bullnose" and "bricknose" on other sites. Also on craigslist, but I still just call my trucks F250 or F100. I could use terms like PIA, oil slick, yard ornament, ect ect, but I feel the Ford did a decent job at naming them.

When am I NOT being bull-headed?

I said those things just to pacify folks, which is something I rarely do. I was on some rather powerful pain meds at the time, so I can't really be held responsible anything I said or did during a halucination........


People may not agree with, or even like my opinion about something, but they will at least know where I stand on the issue.

FWIW, my RX7 is reffered to as an "FB" by most rotary related people. It's the manufacturers internal body code, and appears in the VIN of every 81-85 RX7 sold in North America. 79-80 NA models, and 79-85 world market models, are known as "SA22C", as that was the original body code given by Mazda and appears in the VIN of every one of those.
I don't use those terms either, even though there is a very VALID reason for their existence.....

You don't have a signature. You have one of those stupid little boxes that requires an electronic interpreter to comprehend.

Yes, but it's clickable.

I'm surprised you talk to me, given my alternative attire....

Clickable or not is of little relevence, seeing as I don't click on crap unless I *know* what it is........

Dude, I don't have to approve of your wardrobe (or lifestyle [J/K]), to respect your intelligence.
Beauty, or the lack thereof (my personal situation) is only skin deep. Stupid goes to the bone, and beyond.
Everyday I think people can't get any stupider.
Everyday, I'm proven wrong........ Luckily, it's not around these parts most of the time.
