OK, some folks want to call it a 'truck'.

Yup, looks like a truck to me. Same color as Don's too.

Duh!
That is a 1st generation model.
My model is more like your wife's Highlander in size.
Sorry to disappoint you but my colour is a bronze/brown..........
pyrite mica to be exact.

Herring bought a truck four times the size he needed to tow his
boat. D'oh.

And/or his camper. There's a good reason why too. Pulling his camper
with the Highlander the fuel mileage was anywhere from 8-12 mpg. the
diesel pickup gets double the mileage pulling either one, plus you
not
only gain on the braking factor, but also the pulling response behind
a duramax is like the truck isn't pulling anything. Better safety,
better economy, less wear and tear and less carbon footprint.

good decision.

Depends on how often and how far one tows one's camper, eh?

You freakin' idiot, it makes no difference how often and how far he
tows
the camper. If he tows it one mile or one million miles, he's still
getting better mileage.- Hide quoted text -

Yiikes... are you really that stupid?
If Johnny only towed his trailer/boat 5 miles from his house to his
favourite campground or launch... how could you justify the extra
expense of the big diesel truck compared to the useable Highlander,
that he already owned?
If you would only quit playing with your 'little head' and give your
'big head' a shake, things might make more sense.


I think herring also had or has a V8 4Runner, which is more than capable
of towing his boat, or his camper. You'd have to tow a whole lot, which
he does not do, to justify the price of that overgrown diesel truck, and
it's so large, you wouldn't want to drive it around town much. It's a
bitch to park in the city.


Men of means have more than one vehicle at their disposal. Simply use
the one that matches the task at hand, oh one dimensional one.



Gee, Jackoff, that must explain why we have a sedan for road trips, an
SUV to haul stuff around, a sports car and a motorcycle. No need for an
oversized pickup truck, since we no longer have a trailerboat.

Liar.

Suddenly the conversation turns from Herring, who has a need for a
substantial truck to tow his toys, cross country safely, to Krause, who
will soon be trading his junk for an electric wheelchair. Won't be
needing that big red barn anymore.

Poor Harry. Jealousy is a pure bitch, especially is there's a tad of narcissism involved.

I'm wondering if parking is a big problem in Huntingtown. I've no problem parking the truck wherever
I go, but maybe the spaces in Huntingtown are a lot tighter. Could be. Who knows?
