    My Truck

    I wasn't sure of the best place to put this, so if this is the wrong spot, please feel free to move it, mods!

    Anyway, I just got this truck about a month ago and I finally got the plates on it and thought I'd show it to some people who might appreciate my truck decor. :) 

    Enjoy!

    Very cool, even though everyone knows Optimus is a Dodge. :wink:

    Haha. I know. I have 4 of those Dodge Optimus's! I can't help but think though, even if Optimus was a Dodge, he still wouldn't be a silly low rider version.
    I actually was choosing between an F-150 and a Ram 1500. My wife forbid me to get a Dodge though after hers had broken down about twice a year over the last 5 years. So I went with my other choice.

    Ford would have probably been my choice, too, to be honest.

    Awesome Truck! Yeah, I've been loving mine so far. I'm going to be paying on it for a while so I'd better enjoy it! :)

    Yep. A world record breaking truck built mainly for speed. Optimus Prime isn't known for speed at all. In fact it's one of his lowest stats. Seems kind of a silly choice to me.

    Well, funny how time changes all things: that said, I did get to drive my firstborns home in that old beast.

    Sadly, one must pay the piper and realise he's ripping you off. I have traded in my Ford Falcon XR8 sports sedan, and gone to the opposite end of the market.

    From Ford to GM, from sports sedan to station wagon. Truly I am a sinner in the hands of an angry God :p 

    In all seriousness though aside from some odd design quirks, this car is fantastic. A decent, economical V6 with boot space to spare. I'm saving at least $250 a fortnight on fuel and repayment costs alone, and this guy is much newer and has far fewer kilometers on him.

    I recently inherited this 2000 GMC Sierra from my mother-in-law. It's barely got 60k miles on it and has been garage kept. It was actually my wife's father's truck before he passed away in 2003. Since then, it's been a spare truck only used to pickup mulch in the spring and carry sheets of wood once in awhile. We got it because when my MIL got remarried recently she felt weird having her previous husband's truck still in the garage.

    So it doesn't live in a garage any more but it certainly gets taken care of.

    I bought the 250 new as a learner and graduated to the 600 a couple of years ago. They are as close to matching as I can make them. I kept the 250 for fun and so I can go on rides with my fiancé. She just learned to ride and it's a fun, safe bike for that.
