Regular cabs will always be quintessential pickup, but I’ve always been an extended cab guy myself.

The V10 never left, it’s just not available in the Super Duty, this is the replacement for it though.
There’s a local burger joint that makes a peanut butter burger, except they make their peanut butter in-house from honey roasted peanuts. If I could only eat one thing for the rest of my life, it would be that burger. An over easy egg and bacon on top just makes it that much better.
Dentsides are in that weird middle ground right now, similar to the Chevy Squarebodys. Really good ones are worth quite a bit, but bad ones are worth pretty much nothing.
East side, and same, it’s just one of those fun things we do here.
At least we don’t tuck our pants into our boots....
The Jag XJ6 suspension actually fits quite a few older trucks and is a pretty common swap. It’ll nearly directly bolt on to a ‘48-’53 Ford truck as well with only a tiny modification to the frame to create a flat surface.
“everyone rides Harleys.”
Agreed, steering felt precise and sharp at speed and stability at 80 mph was great, exactly what this type of bike is meant for, but that comes with some extra heft that’s hard to hide at slow speeds.
I felt the opposite when I rode a new Cheiftain, I was shocked at how heavy it felt. It’s not something that would turn me away, and on the road you don’t notice it, but for a bagger it was one of the heaviest feeling ones I’ve been on.
I’ve demo’d one of these and yes, that was my single biggest takeaway from the bike. Once moving it’s not terrible, but at slow speeds and stopped these bikes feel very heavy. Makes for a very stable and comfortable ride at highway speeds though.
All anecdotal evidence but, I’m 27 myself, owned a Harley for a few years and would like to own another. I know quite a few people near my age who either own Harley’s, or would like to own one. I rode out to Sturgis this year for the first time, and while that demographic clearly favors Harley, there were still a lot…
One of my crazy dreams is to find one of these old “non-Harley” Harleys, and ride it to every Harley meet I can find.
Harley has arguably always been cool (except to people who don’t like it obviously), and if you look around, either in person, or on social media it’s easy to see that there’s tons of younger people on Harley’s. Like you were thinking though, they’re all on older, cheaper, used Harley’s, which is great, but doesn’t…
27 years old, previously owned a Sportster, now on a Yamaha cruiser. I’d love to buy another Harley. While I agree with most things said about Harley, and “Harley people”, I still like most of their bikes, think they’re well built and good looking, and I don’t give a shit about the image (ride what makes you happy). I…
I think you’re thinking of Leah Pritchett, shes been on quite a few Hoonigan videos, and some recent Roadkill ones as well.
This is the one thing I wished they taught me in school. Sales said we could do what? For how much? And they want it when?
I’m not talking outright speed, because of course it will be fast, hell, a new 2.7EB crew cab is faster than the old Lightning. Comparing numbers between a modern truck and a 16-26 year old truck aren’t what matters here, much like comparing a 3rd gen Camaro to the new one. What made the Lightning special was that it…
Don’t you dare. The Lightning name is name is sacred to us truck lovers. If this was an electric performance truck I could maybe get behind it, but a standard pickup? They better not.
