    THIS and

    BTW TRUCKS have no "feelings" Seems to me its the owner who may be offended. If that is the case someone needs to get a real life and not become that emotionally wrapped up in their truck to the point where they name it or are offended by a specific name for it.....ya think?:rolleyes:.

    You know, "taco" is really not that bad, on the grand scale of unflattering derivative nicknames. If my sick friends stick with "taco truck" as the preferred way of describing my rig, I will have gotten off easy.


    My dad used to call Toyotas "toy autos". (I doubt that would stick with these trucks. But it summarized grandma's monkeyshit brown '74 Corolla pretty well.)
