Review: 2012 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor

comments
First, a disclaimer: I am not a truck person. I have lived in big cities (or very close to them) my whole life. I have never had a need for pickup truck, I never owned one, and I know few that did. My only experience with pickups was while working for a construction company during…

Truck Thursday: Our Cars: Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes

comments
So my fellow Hoons, this is once again another rather long and rambling post about some of the things going on in this olelongrooffan’s life at this point. If you don’t really care for my ramblings, please move along. I won’t be offended. However if my fellow Hoons have a bit of time to waste…

1979 Dodge Lil' Red Express

Special delivery I’m a big fan of trucks, especially classic trucks. Over the years, my taste in trucks has gone from sport trucks to low-rider duallys to desert runners and finally back to the other extreme, mostly original examples of the finest iron and steel Detroit offered. In that spirit, I want to show you one…

Head Honcho . . . Here’s a cool little number from the list that belongs to Craig (who is Craig, anyway? Why not Ed, or Larry?).

The Ford Raptor: you love it or you hate it, but you can’t ignore it. Yes, it’s desert runner, not a grocery getter. It’s not a road course machine, either, but Tanner Foust doesn’t care. What you’re about to witness is simply amazing. Watch the clip, posted after the break. [Source: YouTube]

Truck Thursday: One Huge Towing Machine

comments
This olelongrooffan has noted previously that I am fortunate enough to see some pretty cool vehicles at the place where I schlep trailers for a living. Today was no different. I spotted this huge ass truck pull in and the owners got out and headed to JeffTheBoss’s office to talk it up a bit about…

Down on the Amsterdam Street – Jeep Cherokee
/

comments
Here are two quick shots of a wood-vinyled XJ Cherokee I saw in Amsterdam, for Truck Thursday’s sake. Like the majority of my Dutch sightings, it looked surprisingly clean and well-kept. With forest green paint and plastic wood, it looks very good indeed down to the wheels.

Truck Thursday: Street Legal Monster Truck Longroof

comments
So on Wednesday, this olelongrooffan peeked out my window to the outside world in my cube and see this massive freakin’ truck pull into the parking lot out front. Well, my fellow Hoons probably know the immediate actions of this olelongrooffan were to grab my sometimes trusty elcheapoebay acquired image taker and head on out…

Truck Thursday – 1984 Toyota Hiace
/
/
comments
This 1984 Toyota Hiace stares at me with its cold round eyes all day every day. The garage in which it sits directly faces my office window, so it was inevitable I go shoot it one day. It also seems to be a well-enough preserved example of a trusty hauler, so it easily makes Truck…

It’s Truck Thursday, and today is as good of a day as any to ask – what’s a truck? Living in a city where there is almost too much construction going on (seriously, it never ends, mostly because the new stuff needs to repaired right away), I see cranes all the times. And each time,…
