Dad had a 95' Chevy Silverado. That truck got the living shite beaten out of. Dad eventually traded it in for a 2001 Ford F-250. At that point the truck really wasn't worth a lot because of all of the dings and dents. I would be still using that truck if we still had it.

Both of my trucks were 9 years old when I got rid of them. Both times I was upgrading. They've all been gmc 1/2 tons so I've really not regretted any of them going. I really really like my current truck but I'll prolly get rid of it this year before it has 100k miles on it (if the oil patch stays afloat). I literally may order the exact same truck and will likely miss the upgrades to this one.
ETA that both of them were totally worn out when I got rid of them. I am ridiculously hard on a truck.

This is the first day we got it, before the lift and 33's, I wish I could find those pictures too. This was my first vehicle.

Back in the late 90's I had a 84 Chevy K5 Blazer. Don't have any pics but like this one in brown/white. Lots of fun to take the top off and go riding.

Had an '85 Silverado i wish I still had. Had 88k on it in '95 when I dumped it. I saw that truck 2-3 years ago on the road.
Bought a '97 Chevy ex-cab w a bad motor at 125k... Replaced it w a new 350 v8 and it would scream. Had big mudders on it. Loved not caring about the exterior. Kid drove it n high school, sold it to get him a car at graduation. Smh.
Currently in a z71 tahoe w 250k. Have a feeling im gonna hate gettin rid of this one the most

I started off driving my dads old 77 courier. Man I gave that truck hell. 4 cyl 4 speed
Regret selling my 01 tacoma V6 4x4 ext cab. My brother and I bought ours the same day and he kept his (he was in a better financial position at the time). I so regret selling that truck.

If that truck could talk. I drove it from 12-15 and put no telling how many miles on that thing around our house and in the woods between us and Blue Lake.

Google pic, but I had 94 Toyota 4x4 like this one that I wish I still had.

I had a blue 1986 Toyota turbo pick up. Man I loved that truck. I sold it and got an 88 crew cab and I Really loved that one. Unfortunately I managed to flip it one summer in college being an idiot

Wasn't mine. But I sure loved that old truck.
1968 Ford F100 Ranger 360/3 on the tree. Pale yellow. Called her "Old Yeller"....Dad sold her to a guy who painted her black. I just wish I could have gotten the headache rack off the bed (dad made it when he was working in the oilfield from pipe and expansion metal).
Swore I'd find a truck like her..and rebuild it and give it to the ole man...but he passed in 2009. Still thinking about it.

Not a truck I regret selling, but a truck I regret not buying...
In '92, I purchased an S10 Blazer, and was very close to getting a '92 GMC Typhoon... But at the time, thought is was too pricey... Settled on the Blazer..
If I bought the GMC, I know I would probably still have it...

SouthernInsanity, do you know a guy that bracket races a Harley at No Problem? First name Peter?
Posted on 3/5/15 at 9:34 pm to MudEngineer318
Not ours but I almost cried when dad told me he sold his when I was 13. His was a 1989 with a 2" lift, 6k lb warn winch, KC's on the front grill and air bag shocks. It smelled like old leather and would climb a brick wall if it had to...

Yew...
been years since I was out there and only went when brother-n-law and I felt like talking smack. Lost that truck in Katrina because I left N.O. in my '04 Titan but the Titan made trips to the No Problem as well. Damn brother-n-law smoked me when he failed to tell me he had slapped a super charger on his '04 chevy 
But I do remember seeing one maybe two other there that was racing HDs.

'86 Bronco II (Eddie Bauer)
gave it to a younger cousin who was in dire need of a vehicle, punk turned around and sold it rather than giving it back to me when he replaced it.

I've been wanting and old Z71 for a long time. Id jump at that if I could find one on that condition.
