There was a big discussion here quite a while back (Shaun remembers better than I do... 
) and there were several names suggested for the 80-86 trucks, but Bullnose won out.
I personally don't like it and don't refer to my truck by that name, but oh well.

Yeah, we even ran an official FTE poll to choose a name, and that's what won.

Haven't, as yet, found it to be a term recognized outside of FTE. You would think that once we "said so" it would be - everywhere. But, alas, only y'all understand me when I use that term, although why would I need to use that term since we are all reading the forum about them? So, I don't use that term, which means it isn't getting propagated and, therefore, won't become accepted by the masses as the nickname of our trucks. (Seems like Catch 22.)

Well, I must say, it worked on me!!!
Being new to the "bullnose" era trucks recently, once I came here with you fella's, I just assumed it was the official recognized nickname of these trucks. I've used the term outside the forum, now I know why i get the odd looks

I have a hard time trusting anyone in "alternative" attire.......
I don't use those terms either, though I can see where they come from, unlike this one. I just don't don't see it, even when it was photochopped.

I don't like it, and therefore do not use it either. Never will either, even if it becomes "law".....
