Whats your trucks name - Page 3 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

My 71 Stepside was called "Shorty" because of the five foot bed, but since I just cut that off and put a stock bed on it, not sure what I will call it. Probably "The Stepside" like I have called all my other stepsides.

I had a Yellow 69 GMC we called "The Mustard Truck".

I don't name them all, only if someone names it for me, or if a name just jumps out at me.

I don't normally name my vehicles, but I have made an exception for my '71 C-10 and '92 GMC K-3500 duallie.

My wife calls the '71 "The Beast", my grandsons call it "Grandpa's old truck" and I call it "My ole farm truck". I use it mostly to haul farm and home improvement supplies.

A friend named the '92 GMC K-3500 duallie "The He-Man Truck". It is used for hauling stuff that is too heavy for the '71, which is usually not much.

The last owner of my truck used it in Wyoming near the park. Him and his wife called it Ol' Faithful. I usually don't name my vehicles so when talking to the PO I refer to it as Ol' Faithful.
