What Did Someone Say About Your Truck Today?

We got a 'What did you do to. and a' What did you do With ' your truck today.
.
This is a "What Did Someone Say About Your Truck Today?"
.
It seems like every time I take my truck out, someone says or asks something about it.
Sometimes it's just a thumbs up.
Today, when I went to the recycle place, an old guy - around 80 asked what year it was, and then looked it over nodding with appreciation.
Then when I got to the dumps, a younger guy asked what year was it.
These trucks do turn heads.
What do people say or ask about your truck?

Re: What Did Someone Say About Your Truck Today?

Cruising by the front entrance of the local Walmart a gentleman said Wow!! Now that's something that you don't see everyday a sixties 4 door Chevy truck. He walked over when I parked and said he had never seen one before and asked if I had made it and if it was for sale. I said it is not for sale. He then asked how much I had to have to consider selling it. My response was it is still not for sale as it took my 29 years to find it and if I did have a price it would be ridiculously high.

Re: What Did Someone Say About Your Truck Today?

On the 58, wife says the other night "I like it as is". Not sure if she meant it or if she's tired of my addiction.

66 got a couple thumbs up today, and the girl at the Starbucks drive thru says, " nice truck, I really like the way it sounds".
