 Jeff,
I like trucks. I really like Ford trucks, Old Blue 1986 F250 460 4x4 standard, Polar Bear 1992 F250 460 4x4 Auto, Blackie 2001 F150 5.4 4x4 Auto and a Chevy Named White Truck 1979 C30 454 standard.    What did I do with that wench I just had it!

That's cool.   I'm to a point where I'd like to run my truck around some, just to enjoy it.   Run it through a Cruise-in or something.   Nice photos.

Dang, where do all these great looking trucks come from?   I have the best looking bullnose in my area, from what I've seen and mine is pretty sad compared to these.   There are some really nice trucks still left, thankfully.

Yeah in my neck of the woods I've just started noticing more bullnoses obviously mine is always gonna be the best looking

But all seriousness I just like seeing our style and year of trucks coming back.   But around here the square body chevys seem to be the cats pajamas and looks like the 80s 90s  style of wheels are a thing again too.
