Pictures of your daily driver trucks

I'd love to see the everyday workhorses some of you guys drive on a day to basis.

I'm planning on daily driving a '67 C20 and just wanted to see how many others do the same

Holy wow.

I hope that 6 gets you 'decent' gas mileage!

Looks like I'm getting a 396, so I'll also be a local gas station regular

I didn't know that I liked the Suburbans of this era, gorgeous truck!

Why did you sell it if you don't mind me asking? It looked like a real beautiful truck.

Thank you, and nope. Leavin' it the way it is (Plus paint) for now. Driving it in the fall and winter to work the bugs out of it and blowing it apart in spring to correct bodywork and paint dark green.

That's got beautiful all over it!

I miss driving these trucks daily. I've lived where you can and used to back east here till the early '90s when I realized there's no way to winter drive one without destroying it. Have had plans to move back out west since, but wife (x) had other ideas, as I can see looking back. I always liked old GM trucks and chose these trucks for being modern classics, while the older ones were for fun/pleasure. Now these are in that precious category, and even newer. I need to move or just retire so I can sit out the salty roads
