You look like someone who lives in a residential area who doesn't have their own business. Why do you need a vehicle like this?

There's no point fishing for debate in this thread. It's happened before and it just gets out of hand. While he may not need a truck, you won't change his mind and he won't change yours. This is a thread for pictures of cars, if you want to debate the necessity of large vehicles start a thread in the social discussion forum.

You need to own your own business to drive a truck? I work for a general contractor and need to haul a lot of building materials to and from my job. -Ever try to put 15 sheets of drywall in the back of a car? Sorry I posted a ''truck'' in your ''car'' forum. Yes, people build rooms just like the one you're in using...trucks.
Hey, here's me using my ''truck'' the other day...

Here's a guy two doors up. I apologize for mistaking ''car'' for ''vehicle'' in this thread.

I noticed a lot of ''trucks'' on my street driven by people who make a living using them. And by the way I commute to work a lot on my bicycle when I don't need my ''truck.''

Holy ****, I don't think I have ever seen that before! I thought those were two door only. What model is that, a Series 62 Sedan DeVille?
I'll get some details for you, it's my neighbors'!

Its a 61 Cadillac Series 62, 4 door hardtop. Series
62 was the base model, Deville was the same body but
w/upgraded trim and leather.

Nice and thanks a lot for the information! I don't know too much about the old Cadillac's... as for your Tundra, how do you like it?

I love it!! It's a 2005, bought it new. Plenty of power in the dual overhead cam, variable valve timed 4.7 V8!! It's a TRD 4X4 and it has the ''limited-slip'' rear, that makes such a difference compared the the ''open'' rear on my last 4X4 Tacoma. I only need 4X4 in extreme conditions. Drives almost like a Lexus!
Here's a couple off night shots of another one of my neighbors Caddy's. Sorry for the dark pics. Sweet car!

I actually read the Tundra is the Camry of trucks... thats a good thing in my opinion! I like the Cadillac... the rims aren't for me but nontheless a sexy car. We have a couple of those for sale at my dealer and they always sell quick. Great cars, and you can always get them cheap.

I actually do "need" my truck. :eek:

Notice I said may, you may use the capabilities of your truck a lot more than the average American.

However, I do find it strange that Americans seem to overlook estate cars (wagons). When Europeans want something with a lot of space, we go for estate cars. Put the rear seats down and you have enough room to carry pretty much anything a normal person would come across.
