I guess its a reference to how the front grille protudes out. I have never thought it to be prominent enough to make it a nickname or label.

Ah, good times! My buddies all use Bully now to refer to these trucks. So instead of hearing, "I saw one of those trucks you like," I get "I saw a clean Bully today." We done good.
