I grew up on a small farm. We had two farm trucks, and old ford, that was so old, I don't know it's model name, and was rarely used. Our most used farm truck? A Chevy S-10. It was blue and white. Not only did I drive it around the yard when I was around 12, I remember going with my guardian to haul grain in it. A 50mile round trip, with the bed full of grain. It's a small truck and it was our best farm truck.
Emotional support trucks is so spot on imo
Aww yea.. Hauling grain... 😅
Our trips were much shorter, but I remember towing 10-tonne grain cars, sometimes multiple, with the old Dakota.
It surely wasn't rated for this, but the thing just refused to die.
I still can't take some people seriously, those who're afraid of putting a scratch in their beds by putting literally anything in them...
sigh
Hell yeah, a Dakota is about the same size! May not have been rated for it, but did the job.
I remember my uncle's in the 90's talking trash when extended cabs became popular. They had this word they used.. yuppie, I believe. Funny how things change and stay the same
