so wandering around the rest of the internet i ran across an in depth article about pickup design, driving, maintenance, and cost of ownership and thought I'd share

Strange story. Everybody is entitled to their opinions and he has his. Everybody is different. I don't drink and I can drive my truck in any situation. I have never had an accident or been pulled over by a cop while driving a car, truck or one of my motorcycles. We have cars, trucks and Jeeps and motorcycles. We use or vehicles for different purposes. My wife will drive my Ranger once in awhile. She loves the Jeeps...but only to go off road...not to work or grocery shopping. She will drive her car for all that. She will not ride a motorcycle. Some people will never in their lifetime drive a truck. I guess us truck people are a different breed, Eh??

the writing style kinda reminded me of some of Patrick F. McManus's old stuff
