My wife thinks it's a truck?

Reminds me of something I saw on the highway the other day.... a Honda Element (you know... the half plastic hippy boxes on wheels?) with a license plate that said "BBYHMR" ... um... I guess the closest thing I can think of would be an H3... hell... my '04 Endeavor is more of a baby hummer than that thing, and I usually refer to it as "my car"....
 
My gal and I are both guilty... I refer to her Durango as "the truck" but she just calls it "the car"... So I reckon we're both wrong. I don't argue with her about it though, it's just not worth the cold shoulder :o I do like the Durango, though, no matter what you call it. :D
 
It is kinda hard to classify the PT Cruiser, but a suggestion: If the Mrs. thinks it is a truck, it is a truck. If she says it is kinda like an SUV, it is....well it kinda looks a bit like a little SUV, sorta....
I hope you are just kiddin around with this.
 
Yup, what momma sayz goes around here too. If she says the sky is yellow then it must be yellow.:D
 
Because if mama's not happy, no one will be happy! :D

And if any ladies are reading this, don't be upset. We love you, we really do!
 
I use my 98 honda odyssey as a truck. just remove the 2 center seat and fold down the back seat and you can hual almost anything :)
 
I'm thinking about getting her a tag that says "My Truck" or something like that on it :D

Yeah I'm just kidding about being mad, although I did tease her a bit about it.

I guess I 'm a pick up man. Down here in south Texas some guys put wide 20" rims and thin racing tires on a pick up.:confused: I even saw an f150 with those rims and hydrolics:confused::confused:. That was just wrong IMO.

Hey Joe Cabaup what if I never wash it?:D

funnyest thing I saw in San Diego vehicle wise when I lived (well sorta like dying without the burial) there was some of the local Mehicans with their lowrider trucks doing the grasshopper thing, one of them bounced on the sidewalk and got immediately ticketed by the cop that had been watching.
Turns out the guy was an illegal, got himself cuffed and taken away (a little contempt of cop thrown in for good measure :D )


EMIGGREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

:D

This is hilarious. Sorry, guys your pickups are pickups, so is mine. They are NOT trucks. Trucks need to be able to haul tons. If it ain't at least a 2 ton it isn't a truck its a pickup. Like boats, even when I fished on a 105' crabber it was a boat, not a ship. Your laughing at his wife and the truck drivers are laughing at you.

I dare you to say my old '77 chevy one-ton ain't a truck. :mad:
 
When I was in the service the Jeeps official designator was, (M151 truck quarter ton.:confused: Well I guess it do have a bed of sorts on it.:)

When I was a young man I took a job in a warehouse. Boss told me to get a truck down here to move some boxes. I managed to squeeze a Chevy half ton down the isle. Old boy nearly had a stroke. Seams that some folks call a moving-dolly a hand truck.:o

Oh crap. What do I do now! :D

It did make the drive from Georgia with a small Bliss stamping press in the back. Please call it a truck. If it gets pissed off it won't start...

Mike, I'd love to see the look on his face! :D

If you genuinely use it to haul stuff it is it is a truck. If you use it as a car a to haul yourself around and the bed looks all bright and shiny it is a pickup. Hows that.
 
Nathan, after meeting Jim face to face, I'd let him call me and what I drive, whatever he wants! :eek: :D Well, except late to supper!!! :p :D
 
I didn't read the OP carefully enough and thought you were talking about a Toyota FJ cruiser, which could be called a truck of sorts. A PT cruiser is a chick car, not a truck:D

Yeah, I've heard that Jim is kind of a big scary fellow. But I'm not afraid. You see, he couldn't be farther away from North Carolina without getting wet. That, and my big truck makes me a bad ass. When it runs...

Jim, scratches in the bed? Dude, it has scratches, dents and even holes all over it. So that settles it. My truck is a truck, not some girly little almost-truck. And I'm still a man. With my manly truck. yeah.
 
My truck bed was scratched, dented, and abused all to heck, so I but a spray in bed liner. Made it look like new :). The only hole I had was when I was driving down the road and hit something I didn't see until too late. BIG bang! I stopped, looked around and couldn't find any damage at all. When I got home, I discovered a big chunk of rubber missing from the tire that hit it. As I was walking in, I looked back and saw something laying in the bed. It was a plow shank that had fallen off of a tractor. It had shot off the tire/road and penetrated completely through the bed of the truck on a trajectory that nearly put it through my back window and into my head.

Then I flipped it at 85 on a dirt road. Oh to be young and dumb.
