    sounds crazy but i have been driving this truck for about 5 months now and it's my first truck ever...but i feel attached to it...it's a hunk of metal but i really feel attached to it...

    no i'm not crazy, but it's just a weird feeling...i was wondering if anybody else felt this way?

    Honestly, I don't have a clue. It's a '95 model with over a million miles.
    The orange trim was added when the truck was painted. (looks like a few years back)
    Supposedly, I'm the third owner. Truck was bought new in the Miami (Florida) area, and was part of a small private fleet there until about a year ago. A guy that lives near Dallas bought it from the original owner, and I bought it from him 3 weeks ago.
