Tonka Truck

Falcon11,

It doesn't look like anyone has cleared up what the Tonka truck is, so I will. It's a concept "Ford" truck not Dodge. It's a F-250 or 350, I don't remember which, but I my opinion, it looks good on "that" size truck. I don't think it would look good as an "L". Again, just my opinion, why would they mess with success. There are things that Ford could tweak on the current models and not make any drastic changes and still keep their market share. I've seen alot of concepts and custom jobs out there but nothing that does it for me like the current style.

. While the truck doesn't seem destined for production, it does offer an intriguing preview of design cues and powertrain technology sure to make it into Ford's F-Series in the near future.

If nothing else, good luck trying to tow it off and Heaven have mercy if you park a patrol car behind it to write me a ticket

Thanks for the link and info., I think I'll stick to the more practical speed machines though. I got to say that is one big bad *** truck, are they going to make them?

Falcon...Probably not - There are no plans for production...but this might be a cue to the future of the F-350. I wouldn't mind having one in black...It would look hella nice next to my HD Supercrew

Lawn parking with permit only

Jeesh, CA that thread must be what, two and a half years old by now.
I have't been around too much lately, but what happened to your move to AZ?

Bill, I leave on the 6th. Can't wait to get there. I am so sick of packing already and I'm not even taking any furniture. Hard to believe how much stuff can build up.
