I just smile and say heck no! Look at that mirror hanging from the ceiling!

big mike71 · 06-24-2011, 08:53 PM

I had a guy say nice truck, Then ask if it was a ford or chevy, I told him it was a dodge. He walked off scratching his head.

Shyguy · 06-24-2011, 11:39 PM

Here is the number one question I get about my trucks: "Is that thing safe", lol. I say yep.

**Already Gone** · 06-25-2011, 12:48 AM

Is that the real/original color ? Does it really have a 396?

BenE · 06-25-2011, 01:31 AM

Mostly from people who know me, How long you been driving that thing? 21 years.

RustyParts · 06-25-2011, 09:17 AM

Q. Is it true these trucks get really bad Gas Mileage?
A. It has a 3/4" gas line on it.

BossHogg69 · 06-25-2011, 11:20 AM

#1 "When is it gonna be finished?" - my wife

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 06-25-2011, 04:13 PM

That's a nice bronco man.. I hate that when people cant read the emblem on the fender..

wwotr · 06-25-2011, 05:28 PM

Usually it's...."Wow that's a nice Truck...what year is it"?

They only use that line, to Segway into how THEY'RE
gonna do the same thing with their Cousins Truck, that's out in a Field that he promised them! They produce "Verbal Diarrhea", and steal 20 minutes of your Life that you'll NEVER get back.

VWBeamer · 06-25-2011, 05:53 PM

Yea, i know, I got a 1967 my brother promised me. I'm putting a 502 crate motor in with a 8-71 blower, and a 6 speed tremic. We are going to shave the whole truck and have it chrome plated, and the mask off some flames and paint them with gold leaf. My dad has a wrecked lambo, we are getting the rear end and buckets out of it. I'm doing my bed just like yours, only better, because I'm using beryllium rails and runners. my moms brother is giving me some Asian birds eye maple for the wood, and my brother law is helping install the drive shaft and gear venders Overdrive.......and where did you get those wheels? because I'm getting a set just like them, only made out of titanium and platinum plated.

'WOW that things still on the road! Cool. I know where you can get a hood, my friend is fixing up a 69 yada yada yada, down the road there are some junkyards with some of those trucks..'

I like comments

**JJorgensen52** · 06-25-2011, 11:30 PM

#1 most common is "what year is that old truck?"

Usually accompanied by raised eyebrows as I'm pulling another car or have it loaded to the roof with firewood
