Using my truck as a truck

Hahaha thats what it was made for man! Way to go!!

 

I have a '97 Ford F150 that I use when I need a truck. I baby my baby.

 

Then why have another truck?

 

X2 ... ?

I don't think a few scratches in the bed of my truck will make it look uglier...

 

damn thats a heavy load!!

 

That's what she said!

 

winnar!

 

I live in Texas.

 

In my opinion, the Taco is not very heavy duty so I don't use it for heavy duty work. I use it for communting to work and it is good for that. It is not too big, I have a good high view of the road, it gets decent gas mileage, and if I need to run to the home depot and pick up some stuff I have room to haul it. I don't need an SUV since it is just me and my wife and she has her own Honda CRV to tool around in. So I have a nice truck to drive and I have an old beater truck for when I need to do something that might tear up the Taco.

 

Well, in MY opinion, give your tacoma 10 more years old, some body rust, scratched paint and it will be as "heavy duty" as your old F150, if not more...

 

Finally......................a truck that is not all show!....................I was in the same position as you yesterday............allot of drywall and some insulation................Way to go.....................

 

I bought mine to use as a truck. I haul stuff to the dump, firewood, camping gear and God knows what all the time. I can't imagine owning a truck and not loading it up now and then.

 

What happened here? Is this related to the picture in the original post?

 

You got all that lumber in the Springs? How did it handle going up on 24 towards Woodland Park?

 

Holy mierda batman! How many miles did you drive on this baby?

 

I know a guy in the new home construction business and Toyota Tacoma's are all he uses and run's the shit out of all of them.

 

Tacomas are the shizzle. Is there a Tacoma museum anywhere??? I have been to the Mercedez Benz museum in Germany and that is da shizzle.

 

Probably less than 1200 lbs. Give or take. OSB gets heavy, a little over 50 lbs. a sheet.

 

I hope ya got the leaf spring TSB done!
