| “Best Worst Truck Ever.” I absolutely loved this car, but it was a pain in the butt to maintain. I mean, it was my first car and just as old as I am so I couldn't really expect more. The body was in great condition until I wrecked it, but everything under the hood needed some help. It had a cracked head, the oil leaked, the transmission fluid leaked, the gas gauge was broken... Lots of maintenance and lots of money spent on fluids, but I still loved it. It had great handling. Awesome turning radius for a truck. I drove it like it was a zippy little sedan. Except I couldn't drive over 75mph or else the entire thing would shake up a storm. But it was so much fun and I wish I still owned it.
Pros —
paint very receptive to chalk drawings, great handling, looked awesome even with the giant dent in the bed, fits six high school kids with ease
Cons —
fluids refilled daily, horrible gas mileage, broken gas gauge to boot, too awesome for its own good

| “My Only Pickup” We really used this truck. It was my daily commuter and then on weekends we'd throw everything in the back and go camping. I learned that it was NOT a four-wheel-drive... It was a nice color of blue.
Pros —
Utilitarian.
Cons —
Too small for four people.

Pros —
I enjoyed driving stick for the first time in a LONG time
Cons —
Old, and its Ford

| “Ok Little Truck” 4 cyl. engine was way underpowered in the 4X4. Couldn't use overdrive into a head wind. Put the poor little thing through hell and it kept going though. It only quit on me once (after abusing it through some pretty serious mud)...went back the next day and she fired right up!
Pros —
Couldn't kill it.
Cons —
Power.

| “Danger Ranger!” I drove my family's Ranger for the first year of college. What a trooper! It started in the coldest of Fargo days always on the first try. I also got in a wreck with it there, but it held up great. It's a cute little silver Ranger with tinted windows. And when it's in 4 wheel drive it's unstoppable. Oh, and it's a manual shift, so it's fun to drivet too!
Pros —
Can start in cold Fargo, ND weather and get you through the snow there too!
Cons —
Has a dent in it now. :(
