NJTman ... I know what ya mean!

It's gotten to the point now that my two oldest boys can spot em as well... we were coming home late last night from milkshakes and a little country drive and my 10yr pipes up and says ... "Hey there's an ol beater!" ... sure enough and fairly decent square body dodge pulling out across the road!

My better half occasionally pics out the old Dodges ("Look Honey there's one like yours but it's on the road...hehehe) usually she just says "Hey there's a rusty old truck" and leaves it up to me to classify it.

Had my truck for like 3 yrs up here in NorCal and never heard anyone say one word to me about my truck. Drive to East Texas last year, about every Texas stop I made had somebody falling in love with my old truck. gas stations, motels, restaurants... Had two serious offers to buy it. Just a d350 2wd, nothing special.

You joined the board just as I was moving out of Auburn! We moved to Oklahoma last September and it is like that here. everywhere go I see people looking at the old Dodge. I have even had women walking a cross parking lots say nice truck. I have a neighbor and a mail man fighting over Who is going to buy mine LOL
