    Haha, how’d you guess? Was born in Texas but have pretty much grown up in Guam the last ten years, so I call Guam home.

    At my age, I like still being able to walk away from my truck and when I come back, not finding a head gasket leak. It is an 05.

    I think this is normal for any enthusiast, whether it's trucks, cars, motorcycles, boats, etc.

    Every single car and truck I've ever owned, I've looked at as I approach or walk away and always feel a swell of pride. Double that pride if it's a vehicle that I've customized and put a lot of personal work into. I bet I look like a zombie when I park my Mustang, as I'm pretty sure I just stand, slouch and drool with a vacuous look on my face.

    Anybody ever stare at the side reflection of your Taco/car on the storefront glass windows as you drive past? It usually works best as dusk. I think I've had a few close calls by doing this because my eyes are off the road for so long. :rofl:

    I will confess to being "that guy".

    Probably 75% of the pics on my phone are of my trucks, most of the rest are of my wife or the dogs.
    These are from where I was working yesterday.IMG_3268.jpgIMG_3283.jpg

    Thanks!

    It photographs well but is a 100k mile truck with a few dings and scratches on it. It is also my work truck. I just try to take as good of care of my stuff as I can.

    Your welcome, any recent truck like that I’ve seen paints faded and ground effects have chunks missing.

    I’ll admit to that too! All my photos consist of my old lady, daughter, and truck!

    I like sports cars and needed a truck for work.
    It is what I came up with. Not the fastest thing in the world but it handles nice and can carry a 6' ladder so.

    Swell behind the truck is a good bodyboarding or bodysurfing wave, not so good for board surfing. Gnarly shoredump, have gotten some great rides and an asskicking out there on a bodyboard before.
