Just for fun

I just wanted to say thank God trucks aren't like women, sure trucks are stubborn at times but they'll never leave ya for an ex like a women will, You can fix your pick up, up like you want it, can't do that with a women(without it costing an arm and a leg, and hearing a bunch of nagging), this otta spark up some conversation, just thought i throw it out there and see where it goes from here.

Women and Cars (Trucks)

IMHO there are many parralles that can be drawn here.


An older one is OK al long as the bodywork is good

An old one that smokes a lot might be heading for trouble

To much weight will get poor milage

A new one will cost a fortune and may still be a lot of trouble




there are 100,s more lets make this thread a MONSTER



Remember there is a fine line betwwen chivalry and chauvanisim

My philosophy is very simple:
Trucks and Women are meant to be Stacked and Lifted!!

I was at Carlisle Truck Nationals last week and the fools are dropping 4x4's to the blacktop, dragging 'em on the ground and calling 'em trucks. And people say I'm nuts!!!

DUDE! I only WISH there were a vehicle - ANY VEHICLE - that was as reliable, solid, and dependable as my wife.

In almost 21 years she's always been there when I needed her and NEVER let me down - and she's VERY low maintenance too.

You just ain't found the right one yet. If and when you do, it will be the best thing that ever happened to you. I know that's sure been true for me......

I can't complain either. I have a pretty good one. She is also handy. I am putting up another tool shed and she got the wire pulled in the conduit and in the ditch for me today. She is going disk some ground tomorrow and get soem cover crop out while I fill the ditch and so some work on the spill way on my pond.

I'm about to try wife #2.

#1 was very good in many ways, and I have no regrets...

#2 wants to learn how stuff works, including my truck. I'm pretty excited by that

- A truck can't give you kids.

- A truck can't take care of you when you're sick.

- A truck can't take a quite walk on the beach.

- A truck can't cook you dinner.

After a trip last winter hauling cattle cross country with the old "90" 7.3. Transfer case in Des Moines. Set of belts in Dayton. Turbo (Banks) in St. Louis. My wife came home with a new 6.0 power-stroke Crew FX-4 Sport edition, (with her own money). Got to love her, only thing is I'll never get to drive again!
