    My thoughts exactly. I remember the pictures of him out shooting with Tfox when he was like 10. Yikes.

    Congrats on the truck. I loved my first truck.

    Thats a nice first truck! When I was 14 I got an 88 Ranger with a 2.9L 6 cylinder and a 5 speed transmission. I got stuck on dry grass, but it got 22.5 mpg :tu: Now I can go anywhere, but I get 11 mpg :(

    I hope to see some deer in the bed of that thing this fall :tu:

    Congrats to him on his first truck! Looking back I wish my first vehicle was a truck and not a 1981 Pontiac Grand Prix

    Nice truck! I was 16 when I got my license. I had a 1982 Chevy S-10 that my dad rebuilt. The great thing about that truck was the engine it originally had was locked up when dad got it from the junk yard so being a mechanic and thrifty he just used one of the engines he had in his shop.

    My little red truck had a 350 V8 in it. It was such a tight fit that I had to give up having A/C in order for everything to fit correctly LOL. Man I loved that truck! Looking back now I wish I would have never gotten rid of it when I went to college.

    Nice truck. I had a 2003 GMC Sonoma ZR2. Loved that truck, I wish I still had it.

    I had an 89 Ranger 2.3l 4 cylinder 4x4 5 speed transmission. Truck was awesome. Chicks digged it, at least I thought they did. Never got a speeding ticket in it, it was to slow

    tfox your son has a nice first truck. Those ZR2's are hard to find now to seems like. I had thought over selling my Silverado and picking one of those up but can't find one in good condition.
