I guess what I'm saying is I like plain Jane trucks.

It don't get plainer than that. I agree that a truck is a work vehicle, and it just doesn't look right with whitewalls.

I kinda still like my whitewalls !!!  I figure its like a farmer wearing a suit on Sunday - and since that is about the only day I drive this old gal, her whitewalls seem to be fitting!  | | | | | Joined: Jul 2005 Posts: 70 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Jul 2005 Posts: 70 | WHITEWALLS would be blood red within 24 hours around these parts from the volcanic soil, and nothing gets that staining out.
How about redwalls?
