I Love My Truck

I have been a Chevy fan as long as I can remember, so it really surprises me that I love my Ford. After being laid off last year I quickly realized that I needed a vehicle. Ben needed the mini-van and Melissa drives the Blazer so I was stuck at home . I decided to check with my old company to see if they were getting rid of any of the old work trucks and wouldn't you know it, they were. This was the better of the two vehicles and it fell into a price range I could afford. Now I've wanted a pickup truck since I was a teenager and even though I still want a Chevy and for it to be a full size truck, this one fits at the moment. It is still an old work truck though. The body is covered with scratches and pits and other scars. The bumpers are rusted and there is still dirt caked into the carpet. The drivers seat is torn and the interior lights don't work, but I don't care. It's my truck and I love it. I've though about getting rid of the cap, but it works out nice for keeping stuff in the back dry and safe.
Yesterday it was 65 degrees out (in the middle of March) and sunny. I hand washed it and shined up the tires. Then I headed over to a local park to get some pics. Thus taking care of two of my favorite things at one time. Shooting pictures and my truck. This was taken with my Canon 50D and the 28-135mm is lens. Shot at 1/8000, f/3.8, ISO 500.
Did I say that I love my truck?
