The Glorious Presence Of The White Pickup Truck

Men of America, what is it about the white pickup truck?


 "In all my travels, as the truth unravels, I have found this to be true..."  S.Dan

They are everywhere.  You can be sedately booking down a sleepy freeway in the American mid-country anywhere when suddenly a vehicle is breathing down your neck, panting to go faster and better and further and sexier and ten times out of about 12 times its a white pickup.  

I used to think that it was just Mexicans who love da white peekup.  But I guess not.  It seems to be country men of all stripes.  Doesn't matter, or maybe I don't perceive who drives which make.  Is there a school of Ford vs Chevy, or who drives those monster Ram things?  Or my model up there, the GMC? 

Does it have something to do with which part of the country?  I have noticed that up in the hills around here there seems to be a lot of red ones.  Hm.

Perhaps some of you ladies have wisdom in the matter of pickup trucks?  

Herein lies a short questionnaire:

1.  Do you possess a white pickup truck?

2. Did your father, brother, lover, grampa or husband drive one? Mother?  Sister?

3. Do you have any idea why they chose white over other likely colors?

4. Do they hand out literature in rural high schools giving the lore and secret knowledge of the white pickup truck?

5.  In rural communities, what would happen to a man should he lose all sense and buy a blue or black pickup and drive it around?

Ahem, What Madness is This?
