do you drive your truck often or not?

[kingsolver72]

I drive my ochre 72 every day. I sold my work van a few months ago and lay carpet out of the truck. I've had well over a 100 yards of carpet and pad on it a number of times,with lowering springs...sometimes the front end gets a litte light. I work that truck hard some days.

i drive my 72 c20 64-70 miles 5 days a week and every now and agine 150-200 miles on the weekend. it may not look the best or be the fastest but the tank gets the job dun, and i love driving this truck every day its totally worth what i spend on gas which is about $70-120 a week on gas sometimes more or less

Drive mine much as possible. Almost every single day. Would drive it more if gas were cheaper. Often people ask me why I drive it so much since it's old and in such good shape. It's has wheels I say. It's made to be driven. Besides, it drives & rides like brand new.

Here I am at the landfill dropping a load. Yes I use it to haul a stuff. That's why I didn't get a silly SWB. Guess this was right after the big brake job since I hadn't put the hubcaps back on yet.

I drive my 68 swb daily 40 miles round trip to work and home, 350 with a carburetor 700R4 and 3.73 gears.

My truck started driving mine after the frame-off in the first part of August and have put 900 miles on it since then. Not my daily driver.

I use my truck as my daily driver and looking for ways to improve my MPG.

Try to drive mine a couple a times on the weekends only, so much nicer to drive something interesting than my 2011 F150 work truck, ditch the F. truck and drive the fun truck, can't wait for weekends.

Had a 68 in high school drove everyday for two years paid 400.00 been a few years ago like 22. Have another drive it about everyday love every minute of it.

Mine is about to become my daily driver. Previous DD was a Dodge Caravan that got over 20 MPG, but after 260,000 miles, it pretty much gave up.

I have been thrashing the wife's ricer daily, but that is not going over well. My commute is about 30 miles round trip, so 10 MPG is not the end of the world. Plus, when driving the GMC people get out of my way and it sounds good when I tromp the pedal.

I have been driving my truck daily, not that I want to

I have a 350, ARR 210 heads, big stupid comp cam, maggie 122, QF850 carb, 1.7 roller rockers, 3.73 gears, 3800 stall, and a detroit locker. it's fun but gets old trying to drive in town and deal with traffic. I get 8mpg and it melts in the rain... I am better off walking in the rain I should say as I found out tonight!

That 3,800 stal would be crazy in the rain for sure.

[BlackedOut67shorty]

I drive my 67 alot. I overheated in it and fixed it on the spot, lost a crapload of oil from a bolt that fell out the front, almost blew a transmission line, and just recently (well i think i always had this prob) an intake leak from the carb adapter plate, but now its gonna be under the knife soon for a better intake that dont need one. Then ill be back on the street

I've had 6 pickups in this style 2 when I was in high school, and still kicking my self in the butt for selling the 70 CST. but I have a 71 plain c-10, well not too plain I put a lt1 full fuel injection in it with a 700r4 and I'm hoping by next year its painted. its our only pickup and I would drive it more on trips if we had A/C in it. but my loves riding in it, but I doubt when I get the a ticket the cop will belive me when I say it was my daughters fault she told me to go fast :-)

This is my only ride, so I drive it to work, when I am cutting grass on the side, or where ever else I am going
