after closer review, it appears that the latest model vehicle mentioned specifically in this thread was a 1964. this clearly falls under the 1972 or older requirements for this section.
references were made to newer cars/trucks/suv's, and some gas mileage information, but as far as i can tell, this fits fine into "general truck talk".
if you feel that it is not appropriate for this section cletis, feel free to move it to the spoon.
sorry you felt compelled to delete your post denny. i don't think it was necessary.
