Sometimes You Just Need A Truck

There are many car people out there who prefer cars over trucks. They like the gas efficiency, easy maneuverability, and compact size of a car. Don’t get me wrong, cars are great especially if you are looking for all of these qualities. Trucks do not really offer these type of qualities. However, they do provide other qualities that compact cars cannot. Trucks are lovely traveling vehicles, they are large, so you can fit a lot of stuff in them. They also have a backend which is perfect for hauling large items such as furniture, two by fours, and camping gear. Another quality that trucks have over cars is that they have larger engines and they can typically haul horse trailers, flatbed trailers, travel trailers, pop-up campers, etc. Anything you need a lot of space for or a high amount of horsepower for, a truck can do it.

What Kind of Truck Should I Get?

The type of truck you get should depend on your needs or jobs you plan on using it for. If you're hauling a travel trailer, you will obviously need something with quite a bit of horsepower in a larger engine and something that has fifth wheel conversion. If you’re looking for something just to haul a small number of supplies may be for work, then you can choose a smaller truck that may be better on gas mileage and a little easier to maneuver. There are all kinds and types of trucks out there but they typically also serve the same purpose. They are convenient when you can’t fit particular items in a compact car or an SUV. If you are a truck owner and you have friends and family who do not own one, then you are well aware that you might be the first person they call when they need something moved. Secretly, we are all wishing they would just invest in their own truck.

Historic Route 66- Main Street of America

Historic Route 66- Main Street of America Over the years, Route 66 has provided travelers, dreamers, and renegades with an experience no other route can give. Established November 11, 1926, covered 2,448 miles and originally ran through eight states starting from Chicago, Ill to Santa Monica, CA and quickly began to be one of the most popular highways in America. It soon became known by other names such as The Mother Road, Will Rogers Highway, and was spotlighted in John Steinbeck’s classic novel The Grapes of Wrath. When The Great Depression hit in 1929 over 200,000 traveled to Californa seeking reprieve from The Dust Bowl and used The Mother Road to escape. Some traveled west with the promise of work. With barren land surrounding them, farmers and their families gathered essentials and traveled west in hopes of work. Towns, mom and pop businesses, and service stations along the highway survived The Great Depression by catering to travelers with supplies, fuel, and car parts. Res...

The Importance of Wearing Your Seatbelt When doing our research into buying a new vehicle, we shop around, go for a test drive, look into the car's history, find repair records, and other countless things.
