I agree. Not sure I'd sell one if gifted though. I would drive that bitch into the ground and not feel the least bit guilty about it. I like to keep the vehicles I care about nice. That means having a sacrificial winter ride.
Like launching it into snow banks and off snowbanks and just random smashing that ugly thing into **** right?

With a plow on the front, yes. Right now, I've got an '88 gmt400 that gets used as a back-up daily, light duty hauler, and possibly plow truck for my driveway, if I find a deal on the right plow. I kinda feel guilty about it because it's almost in as good of shape as the '84. That wheeled miscarriage posted above would make an excellent sacrificial winter ride. I would have no more attachment to that, than the microwave in my kitchen.

It's not bad. Wouldn't buy it, though.

Personally, I think the latest generation of trucks is built very well, and good looking too. Although I must say I'm not a fan of the bug-eyed GMC front end. If I could afford it, I'd buy one too (a Chevy that is). Although after pricing them, ain't no way in hell I'd buy a 1/2 ton truck. For literally just a couple grand more, you can get a 2500 and have trouble-free towing abilities.

Just don't get high-centered on the running boards.:eek:

Of course, if you remove them, you'll have to carry a two-step ladder.

Not even close to looking as bad ass as a Ford Raptor.

Because as “mean” as a Raptor looks the sound of that V6 just brings you back to reality on how Ford could *** up a wet dream.

That, doesn't look bad. The wheels really make the look. I think the stripe on the side should be just a little wider(taller), but overall not bad.
