Spotted this in town this morning (I w
as stopped at the time)
.
Couldn’t have been on there very long, as they were dragging by a couple inches at a stop. I think this is the look he was going for:
In any case, it looked like a “barn find” kind of truck. Pretty straight body, paint that looked quite old but no visible rust. New tires. New (sounding) exhaust. Neat old truck, but will soon be ruined by the high schooler at the wheel.
10/10 driver was wearing a trucker hat, Carhartt pants, a hoodie, and off-brand Timberland boots,
untied. Then I’m sure he parked in the infamous “4th lot” (farthest from the school entrance, and the watchful eyes of the
Principal
) where all the wanna-be rednecks park their trucks in snowbanks, then hang around revving their engines and pulling each other out of the snowbanks,
smoking cigarettes
vaping
after school
during class and
fighting each other
talking shit.

lol, I mean, it’s not pristine. But around here, the average
15
year old truck has worse rust than that.

NO WAY! That’s funny. Really cool truck, in hindsight. Rare!

Hey, can’t say I never joined them. I had a shitty old truck I drove to school some of the time. I was friends with lots of those guys in high school. I just didn’t smoke. Or talk shit.

Yea I parked my Jeep in our furthest out lot BFE, “butt fucking Egypt” *cringe*. Often in snowbanks too.
I also was a wanna- be- redneck because as soon as I left town I forgot about that lifestyle.

With the delivery job I end up at the high school at least once a day. I’m allways annoyed by the teenage red necks and their POS trucks.

Nah, that’s the exact truck he wants. If he showed up in a shiny truck from this century he’d get heckled for being rich.

I coach at the high school and one of my kids had The Best Truck for a high schooler. A 2005 (ish?) Tacoma, manual, 4cyl, single cab, 2wd, base model. Can’t get too many friends in it, can’t go too fast, won’t break, and he will most certainly be learning how to drive well in the snow.

I mostly left the wanna-be-redneck thing behind, except that in college people thought I was from The Woods simply because a) I was from New Hampshire, and b) I could start a fire with things I found in the woods (plus a lighter). Seriously, when we’d be at a house party and people would say “hey let’s have a bonfire” so I’d go into the woods and return with, you know, wood , and start a fire. Witchcraft, I tell you!

Regional rust standards are probably more similar to what David describes here:
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Yup, no back seat for accidents, probably not a even a bench seat at all. And nothing to show off
