    I have a few freinds that get on me for calling it a truck, what do you guys call it and your reason why. I figure it is a Pickup Truck so either way it fine.

    Truck.....rarely hear anyone call their truck a "pickup". Maybe it's a regional thing like soda or pop.

    I could see people use to calling them "pick up trucks". As of now, I only here people say "trucks".

    If I'm around work, its "my pickup". Around home, "the truck". I work on big trucks for a living, so around the shop, "truck" usually refers to something with 3 or more axles.
