Honestly I wish the would atleast make one model that looked like this or this not all bulky and like you're trying to compensate for something

Does anyone else agree?

I dig the 60s trucks, but I could rock a 50s pick up.

I love old trucks because they were just simple, and were bbuilt to be used as trucks and didn't have all these stupid options. My favourite one as to be the 48 Ford F-1 it's just so pretty.

  • 12.24.2012 6:16 PM PDT

I like them but I still like the style of the newest fords but the suspension is stupid IMO

I would drive a Model BB just for the laughs. Imagine seeing that parked next to a 2013 F550

I hate about how car manufactures seem to think that all people want is cars that could go at speeds that are illegal and impractical and could survive a snowstorm. Design > Features.

Two movies you should watch: Fight Club and Pineapple Express

"Wait. What do you mean, it's dead?"
"If marijuana is not legal within the next five years I have no faith left in humanity, period. Everyone likes smoking weed. They have for thousands of years. They're not going to stop anytime soon. You know? It makes everything better. Makes food taste better, makes music better. It makes sex feel better for God's sake. It makes -blam!- movies better you know?"

Haha no. Although I am kinda biased because I like newer vehicles and the advances made in them. I do like old muscle cars though.

the young audience wanting to imitate action stunts from spy movies is the reason for that....

The speed is good but all the stupid sat nav, heat seat cramps is ruining it for me.

Yup.

That second one is beautiful. 1950's chevy's are amazing.

NON FACET NOBIS CALCITRARE VESTRUM PERNĒ¢UM

They do look very nice, they more stylish too.

Old designs look gross whether it be a car or truck.

I am a monument to all your sins

I personally think the older designs look stupid. I prefer modern designs.

That one was a GMC. Here is a Chevy. Note the iconic Chevrolet signature and steel truck bed instead of wooden.

ALL HAIL THE MIGHTY CHROME.

No. 70s and 80s and 90s were real trucks. You can beat the piss out of all of them and they're just meant to take it.

  • 12.24.2012 6:37 PM PDT

What doesn't kill you, only makes you stranger

I love the look of a 50's truck, but given the choice between hauling with one of those or the 2012 Ram 1500 sitting in my driveway, I'd always go with the newer truck.

  • 12.24.2012 6:39 PM PDT

Loved the body style of 60's & 70's vehicles in general. 40's.. I don't know, and 50's were alright. Gotta love the gas mileage for all of them though!

No I'm commenting 1950's chevy's are amazing separately. Look at that thing. The best is green early 50's Chevy's :)

Halo 3 is where the morons of the universe congregates.

I am thinking of an old story. "Three Billy Goats Gruff" (hint the troll dies at the end)

If you had an electron microscope, you still couldn't find the -blam!- I don't give.

The era of really good looking cars is from the 40s to the 60s. So yes, I love that style

Per Audacia Ad Astra

Embrace the future.

oh ok. Yea I wish they made a model with that body style. The Silverado HDs are just so plain and ugly in some details

Not a big fan of the appearance of trucks these days.

  • 12.24.2012 6:58 PM PDT

I do like 50's trucks, but the 80's and 2004-now are the best for cars IMO.

I personally like the first Power Ram 250s for older pickups.

But I also like that F550. Not everybody with vehicles like that are compensating for something.
