(Words and\u00a0photos by Doug Gregory) –\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>Workin\u2019 vehicles or at least they worked at some point in their existence.\u00a0 Trucks, pickups, vans, wagons and more are in this gallery and one to follow.\u00a0 Most of these rides have a pretty easy time of it these days and generally only haul people and luggage in various levels of luxury and comfort.\u00a0 We\u2019ve got a lot of different stuff to bring you in here.<\/p>\n

There are chubby Chevys, fat-fendered Fords, Nomads, and even Dodge Sweptlines.\u00a0 One light-blue Sweptline had a bunch of people gawking at its compound turbo 4BT, three pedals, and subtle touches all over.\u00a0 The mid-70s multi-color Ford Ranger sporting super-cool slots was definitely a trip back in time for me.\u00a0 In my hometown it seemed nearly all the guys in FFA\/AG had a two-wheel-drive long-bed pickup with some cool wheels and fat tires on the back.<\/p>\n

Of course nearly all of them also had the requisite dual exhaust with glass packs to get their perceived horsepower boost.\u00a0 This ride looked like it rode in right off of Main St. in any small Midwest community in the late 70s or early 80s.\u00a0 Whether these rides are stock, beat on, hammered, or spruced up all of them are cool in my book.<\/p>\n
