What does your truck do for a living???

[MEby]

mine sits around most of the summer, only occasionaly does it work. In the summer we use it as a back up truck when the other one breaks. in the winter I use it to drive to work because I cant use my bike in the winter here. :{

Mine hauls me from sales call to sales call on construction sites, dairys or whereever I think I can make a good contact. Then if I sell something that I can deliver I will. It also hauls my junk around occasionally. Family surburban too. I'm just not to keen on going places in my wifes Honda crv.

mine gets driven to/from work one day a week (75 mi each way). occasionally it takes/picks up the kid from school (about 1. 5 miles each way). Otherwise it sits in the driveway. I've only had it just shy of a year (used, its a 99) but it's been on a few 750-1,000 mile trips empty and one 2,000 miles trip with 11k behind it. So far, about 9,000 miles on it since I bought it last Nov.

My other truck is parked in the backyard and that gets driven 1000 miles per year, maybe. So far this year its done 558 miles. However, this one is a gasser and now barely street legal.

Hauls my lazy fat retired butt around. It does't do a thing. Kinda like me!

Yea... me too.

I dont go out much anymore. I'm still on the oil change from last fall. I think it has 3K miles on it.

My truck is used to get me to work and back home. It probably knows the way from my house to Fourchon and Galveston. Maybe 10,000 miles a year. The wifes truck is a grocery getter and what ever else needs to be done truck. Ed B

Mine used to be a daily driver, light off-roading and hauling my dirt bike around. Then it went to work transporting RVs, which added 265k to the clock and finished paying for itself and a large amount of credit card debt. It got retried from that job this last June with 390k miles currently on the clock and is now back to being a daily driver. It gets a few loads of firewood with trailer each year also. I do wish I had a Honda Civic for daily driving right now though.



The upper left picture was in Beach, ND headed for Ellensburg, WA from Indiana. The other two pics are near home with one being set up to make money and the other just recently converted back.

you should be proud---its in really good-looking shape for that many miles,well taken care of. DW

 

[CumminsPower98]

Thanks! I am proud of it and I feel better about owning it now that it has pulled it's weight for a while (literally). I'm a bit of a perfectionist so it gets lots of TLC. I have done my share of leak chasing to keep it clean and dry all over because I hate even the slightest of leaks.

I'm the same way with my truck as well,growing up with the first vehicle to now people use to make fun/give me a hard time about how much i cleaned/maintain my vehicles----WHO HAS THE LAST LAUGH NOW. PS-----in my younger years i was out on a date,she had mud on her shoes and would'nt take them off when she climbed in----said it was just a stupid truck and to relax,you can clean it later:-{}---Date ended right there,drove off---see ya.
