Are we all old truck fans?

So far I've seen one person w/ an old Bronco and 76 Land Cruiser, an International Harvester (what a beast that is), and I have a '65 Land Rover. Any other old trucks that you guys have? Toyota seems to have really done their homework by turning a lot of old truck lovers into fans of this brand new truck...smart move. What other old trucks do you guys have?

Re: Are we all old truck fans?

Besides my old Fj, I have a 78 big Bronco.
Was a little dissappointed when Ford didn't turn their Conept Bronco to reality. Thats what brought me to the new Fj to begin with !!

Re: Are we all old truck fans?

My current daily driver is a 71 F100 2wd. (For the winter months) Ride the motorcycle in the summer (KLX300r converted to street legal) In the process of restoring the old Ford for my little one. The wife gets the Crew-cab Powerstroke for the kids and the horses! I have worked for toyota for over 20 years and this is the first vehicle since 88 that actually got my attention! So this will probably be the last vehicle for me until I expire!
