| This is not a poll or anything like that but I did want to get everyones 2 cents on what they think was the the best truck(pick-up) ever made from 1956 to present day...this can include broncos and blazers and such.
i like the toyota landcruiser..67 - 79 models | |

| I absolutely love the body style of the 1955 Chevy pickup. That's one sexy truck right there. | |

| How about a 'Vette? 1984 Chevrolet : Corvette "One of a kind Covertible Corvette Pickup Truck with removable hard top. This beautiful vehicle was the pride of ownership to one of the principle owners of Bayliner Boats. Specialized molds were created to stretch the 1984 front and 1991 rear Corvette body. This car has a Munci 4 speed transmission and a 350 engine. Over $115,000 was spent to build this masterpiece" | |

| I'm not sure I can even name all the pickup trucks I've had. I think this list is correct in the order in which I had them. I had a few more that I bought just for resale and didn't include them in the list.
1953 Ford F-100 with 401 cu.in. Buick engine 1948 Ford F-100 flathead V-8 1963 International 1974 Chevy 1980 Mazda - bought new 1981 Isuzu Diesel - bought new 1989 Chevy S-10 - bought new 1995 Ford XLT - bought new 1999 Chevy S-10 (wife's truck) 2003 Toyota Tacoma Prerunner 4 door 2004 Ford XLT Supercrew 4 dr. 2008 Ford Ranger Ext. cab - bought new
I traded the Ranger in on a Honda Element and currently do not have a truck. | |

| She's not real pretty but she is mine and she has done me good as any other truck i have owned, she has hit many deer while on the paper route at night here.she took 2 deer at 60 mph and all i had to do was replace the radiator because the grill broke and went into it, i built the deer guard. | |

| Well, I've had chevy, dodge, ford and now nissan, and I've gotta say I've had good luck with all of them. My ford had 195,000 on it when it died, and I'm still driving my 95 Nissan now, it's got 205,000 on it, and still running good. Starting to get some skin cancer(rust) but I'm hoping to get another 50,000 or more out of it. It's been a great little hunting/fishing/drive to work truck, and that's about all I need anyway. | |

| Ranger XLT,,can't beat it. My 1996 has 2 hundred thousand miles and runs like a brand new truck. It has to have FORD across the front or its not for me. | |

| I agree with the blue oval John. After all they were the only one of the big three to not take the bribe money -- I mean bail out money from the feds. | |
