Highboy vs lowboy- which is which

OK, here goes.

I'm revealing just how much of a niggling idiot I am.
What is the difference between a "Highboy" and
a "Lowboy"? I have a 1977 F250 Ranger 4WD called
"Whining Wilma" thanks to her power steering pump.
So I guess it would be "Highgirl"? or "Lowgirl"?

Also- what does "Cowboy up for Mayboy" mean?
Inquisitive minds are dying to know... I've seen
those words on the rear glass of many a pickup.

In the meantime, just relax, sing along and follow
the bouncing fire fart...

too much carb cleaner lately...

Thanks for the reply- I almost thought it had to
do with the type of drugs used by the loose nut
behind the steering wheel... but then again the
female sumo wrestlers added a whole nother view to
"ground clearance" Wife crawled under the truck-
only two driveshafts, so well h3ll it's just a
lowgirl...

What day of the week is guaranteed to be sh3tty?

SaTURDay.

Thanks big guy!

RE: "Cowboy Up For MayBoy"

I was randomly searching the term "Cowboy up for Mayboy" and found this site.

White_Knight, If you are seeing this in many a pickup window I am guessing you are in the Tulsa County area.

As for the origin of "Cowboy up for Mayboy", here goes nothing...

Mayboy as many of his friends affectionatly called him was Brian May. Brian, was a student at Broken Arrow HS, a friend, and classmate. He was killed in the spring of our Sr. year (1999) when a truck a friend was driving rolled. Brian was a friendly, happy cowboy, who loved his F-Series like no other. After he passed no one would use his parking space and we put flowers, pool cues, etc as a memorial to him in place of his white extended cab.

Brian affected so many people we never want to forget him.

"Cowboy up for MayBoy"

I just know Brian is up there smiling all cause he made you ask. Thanks.
