Trucks Name?

Well, if you are gonna name your truck, give it a really cool name, something that scares riceburners and Mercedes owners. We got 2 trucks, with 2 distinct names:

A 1978 Ford F250 Ranger XLT SuperCab 7.5L 460 C6 auto, grill guard:
Knows as "The BEAST"

And a 1979 Ford F350 Ranger (its actally a custom) 1-ton dually surplus Fire Department Rescue Rig. RegularCab, 7.5L 460 C6 auto, 18,000lb Ramsey winch:
Known as "The SuperBOSS"
(named after the legendary 1970 SuperBOSS 429 Mustang that Al Eckstrand "the Lawman" drove while on tour in Vietnam. Car was awesome! Blown 429 putting out 1,200hp!)

Mine sits in a four car garage full of sportscars and it's the ONLY Ranger, hence Kemosabe is the perfect name.

Arrow Trucks Name?

I call mine "the bus" because it's got 3rd row seating and I usually end up driving everyone.

Trucks Name?

The name I seem to use most frequently in reference to my truck is not suitable for posting to a public website read by women and children.

Gentlemen, ignore BobbyL; he has a knack for pushing buttons. Remember: "Never wrestle with a pig; you both get dirty, and the pig loves it"

Don't respond to his baiting.

Now let's get back on track - I think the "Grinch" truck is pretty cool - the Grinch rocks!
