    #10 They have a range of about 20 miles before they overheat, break down and run out of gas.
    #9 Only the owner knows how to operate the door to get in or out.
    #8 It is difficult to drive fast with all the fence tools, grease rags, ropes, chains, syringes, buckets, boots and loose papers in the cab.
    #7 It takes to long to start and the smoke coming up through the rusted-out floorbaord clouds your vision.
    #6 The Border Collie on the toolbox looks mean.
    #5 They're too easy to spot. The description might go something like this: The driver's side door is red, the passenger side door is green, the right front fender is yellow, etc.
    #4 The large round bale in the back makes it hard to see if your being chased. You could use the mirrors if they weren't cracked and covered with duct tape.
    #3 Top speed is only about 45 mph.
    #2 Who wants a truck that needs a years worth of maintenance, u-joints, $3,000 in body work, tail lights and a windshield.
    #1 Its hard to commit a crime with everyone waving at you!!!!!

    Made me giggle. Thanks. You don't know how many of those trucks I see around this town. I call them all relatives of Mator from Cars.

    we live in the pickup capital of the world - right ahead of SUVs and 4 wheelers

    I can add another to the list:
    The truck is so covered in red dirt you can't tell what color it is...

    I'm sending this to my Dad. He doesn't have a farm truck, but he has a "jack of all trades" truck. :)

    I had a car that resembled this LOL
    It belonged to a body mechanic, and it was 5 different colors :roll: but it did run well... No mistaking that it was ME driving down the road :lol::lol::lol:
    My friend's dad had a farm truck just like that... he was determined to drive it til it died!!! He wanted to get his "moneys worth" out of it :wink: We hated it when he volunteered to drive us anywhere... the fumes made your eyes water!!!!

    :lol: :lol: :lol: We have one of these :roll:
    Sometimes I have to drive it, and follow DH down the road on the tractor, so embarrassing :lol: :lol: The only thing we have that is older than the truck is the tractor :shock:
