[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Arfcom work trucks (Page 1 of 2)

Posted: 10/14/2009 6:59:44 AM EDT

I'm not much of a thread starter but i want to know what the work trucks of arfcommers look like. Post a pic of your work truck if you like or you can just give the year and model of your work truck.

This is what i use for my work truck and it is also my first vehicle that i got when i was 16 and it has been in my family since 84. It has been through several bad wrecks but it looks alright after all these years. It's a 1984 F150 with a 302, the only thing i don't like is that it's not four wheel drive.

I can't really call it a truck, but I drive a 2008 Toyota Tundra.

I'm tagging this because i'm looking for an option other than GM. I wanted an Isuzu NPR, but i'm not buying parts and service from government motors.

Looks like I'll have to get a picture of my work truck when I go to work again.

ETA Not mine, but a representative of what I drive at work.

Since I took the above pic, I have added a grill guard, removed the tonneau cover, and added a shell. I just added the shell last week, so no pics as of it yet. But here's the grill guard:

Nice ride....what type of fuel economy do you get?

I do field service work, and put 40-50,000 miles a year on a company vehicle. I used to drive a 96 GMC 1500 extended cab pickup (5.7l Vortec), but the office got tired of fixing things on it & retired it at just over 345,000 miles. Now I've got a 2002 Dodge Caravan (2.4l I4). Damn I miss that truck...

It sucks every time I have to get up to speed to get on the Interstate.

The only saving grace is the improved fuel economy helps a little on the P&L's. But damn, I do miss the truck...

Unrelated - here's my Truck (it used to be a daily driver...)

What's the difference between the "Z71" packages and the "4X4"package?

I believe Z71 includes a A/T tire from the factory, skid plates, heavy duty air cleaner, and heavier shocks.

20-21 mph on the highway, it varies in the city.

Here is my 99 F150 5.4 v8 230k miles. Just put a fresh coat of wax on her.

Did my first heater core change on it over the weekend. I hope I never have to do that again! Ford must hang the heater core then build everything else around it.

Nice!

I've got a white '04. I only get 17 MPG though, balanced between city & highway driving.

I'll post a pic in a few days when I get a computer that doesn't suck.

The picture pretty much says it all. 2006 E250 cargo van, ladder racks with ladders on them, tool and storage bins in the back with tools and parts in them. Vinyl seats and flooring. They aren't pretty, you can't go rock crawling in them, but when you need to run some cable they sure seem pretty cool.
