I like my 4-cylinder '99 Ranger XLT. It's not fast, can't haul much, and there isn't much room, but it's mine. However, it can do some mean burn outs since I convinced my parents to let me get a manual transmission. I love that truck.

I absolutely LOVE my Dad's truck
454 big block generating-480 horses!!!!!!

The T-Rex. That looks cool for a truck. 6 wheels, didn't notice that 'till then. Wouldn't mind going bush bashin' in that.

 

[DessViperV-10]

that t-rex can climb like a mother ****er

 

[Afrodeeziac]

Just got new tires, brakes, and a long over due tune up on my '95 Cherokee. It's now my favorite again.

 

[FuryX21]

I like the Avalanche

 

[DessViperV-10]

that avalance is nice in front,but the rear,

 

[FuryX21]

Well I'd vice-verse that statement when applying it to Dodge trucks.

 

[DessViperV-10]

dodge trucks are revolutionnary

i admit the new ones are BUTT ugly
grill too big

 

[Afrodeeziac]

The Pontiac Aztec was beaten more times with an ugly stick than both of those combined!!!

 

[Sephiroth_52]

Gotta be the new Dodge Ram SRT-10 with it's 505ci V10 pushing out 500hp.

 

[The Vanishing Boy]

The Avalanche sucks a**
That truck came out before Lutz came to the rescue.

My type of trucks (no concept trucks):

Light-duty Compact:

:nissan: Frontier series

Heavy-duty Compact:

:toyota: Tacoma (w/ optional Dualies)

Work truck Compact:

:ford: Ranger

Work truck Full-size:

:ford: F-series Super Duty (thats why they are here for)

Light-duty Full-size:

:toyota: Tundra

Heavy-duty Full-size:

:chevy: Silverado HD w/Duramax (Isuzu) diesel

Hardcore offroading compact:

:landr: Defender 110 Pickup [GBR]

:nissan: Frontier Crewcab Long bed [USA]

Hardcore offroading Full-size:

AM General Hummer H1 Pickup (what else?)

Drag-stripper

:dodge: Ram SR-T (a pickup w/ a :viper: engine)

Luxo-cruiser

Lincoln Blackwood

Overoll practicallity

GMC Sierra Denali

My Overoll choice (the Winner)

GMC Sierra Denali
It can manuever like a compact car in the parking lot (Quadrasteer), luxurious enough for the valet (semi-Denali features), decent towing capacity (est. 10,000 ibs.), "just right" performance (325hp w/ 370 lb-ft of torque) & easy to drive it anywhere. Clearly my best choice.

I like the :mazda: B-Series trucks like the B-4000. Also the old :mazda: REPU, or Rotory Engined Pick Up. Now there colector items, and people are putting 13Bs in them and raceing them...

 

[vat_man]

One that's next to the highway, upside down and on fire.

I hate those frikkin things.

 

[DessViperV-10]

I like the old ram look better

 

[jag_man_v12]

we do you American's call a ute a truck there are nothing like a truck a MAC or a KENWORTH now thats a truck

 

[DessViperV-10]

mac is nice,but id perfer a Kenworthless

 

[MazKid]

naw, I choose Volvo or Mercedes...

 

[The Vanishing Boy]

How bout Hino, Isuzu, Mitsubishi/Fuso, MAN, Hyundai, Asia, Daewoo, Freightliner, Mack, Sterling, and Leyland. And those other big rigs.

 

[MazKid]

and Tantra, was it Tantra? You know in the Parid Dakar rally, there was one that was like Tantra I think...

 

[1X83Z]

Land Rover Defender is extremely capable, but totally unreliable. And the 188-hp 4.0-liter is the second-worst engine in my lifetime (first worst goes to the Chevy Astro / GMC Safari's 4.3-liter V-6).

Nissan Frontier is, except for the Mitsubishi Mighty Max, the worst truck ever. Ever. And, yeah, the Tundra SHOULD BE the #1 full-size truck. God it's great. F-Series stinks, though. Did somebody say redesign?

 

[1X83Z]

No, no, I take that back. NOT ever!!! That's the Lincoln Blackwood! Then the damn Mighty Max. THEN the current-spec Frontier.

Hey M5, glad to see you a member here, enjoy your stay, and if you look down in this forum(automotive forum)you'll see a thread I made, Mazda club, join the club and I'll send you screensavers and stuff if you want...

Anyway, I'm not much of a truck person...I used to be cause years ago I was mesmorized by lots of suspension travel and going off roading...now it seems kinda odd cause I'm a fast type person, now I'd rather have a really fast 0-60 and handling, instead of seeing how steep of hills I can climb lol...

 

[Rx7_Rob]

I Like the Late '70s "Little Red Express Truck". Stepside, dual chrome stacks, 360 under the hood(I'd rather have a 440 with a 6 pack).
As for a Semi Jag Man, I'll Go with a Peterbuilt or one of those Mack Tractor Trains you got down under.
