This Is the Best Pickup Truck Ever Made

What's the Best Truck We've Ever Made Here in the USA?

This might come across as a little biased considering we printed it on one of our shirts, but that 1969-1979 Ford F-250 "Highboy" has to be the best-looking truck ever made. I'm not just saying compared to years past, I'm talking ever. Out of any truck out there.

To get your hands on a clean example these days, you'll be paying well over MSRP back in the 70s.

Dentside Ford or Bumpside Ford?

There are two generations we personally drool over when it comes to Ford trucks, and both are equally beautiful: the Bumpside (1967-1972) and the dentside (1973-1979). These small body line details make up what are two classic generations of the world's most iconic truck. For us, it doesn't matter. When you see that front end of the F-250 high boy, you don't really notice much else!

Shoutout to Velocity Restoration for the pic of this EPIC truck.

Why the Classic Ford F-250 Highboy Truck?

I'm not saying I don't like the Chevy K-10. I'm just saying if you sat them side by side and said, "Hey man, you can have one", I'd pick the Ford. It dates back to my days as a kid in West Virginia. When we'd visit the property, a guy nearby we knew had this identical truck. The body lines, wheel, and tire offset, and those solid axles, it just reminds you of when a truck was a truck.  

There is just something about a cloth or vinyl bench seat, manual transmission, manual-locking four-wheel drive, and just a radio in the dash. It personally reminds me of a time where it wasn't so much about the truck, but what you did WITH the truck that made the memories.
