When Im working I drive a 56 ton forklift

Sinergy

There was a study done. Men who drive 56 ton forklifts do so in order to compensate for lack of large genitalia.

Is the opposite true?

Today I drove a 6 ton forklift.

Sinergy

p.s. two days ago I drove an 80 ton forklift. I drove around the dock screaming out the window "YOU NEANDERTHALS THINK I HAVE SEXUAL PROBLEMS?"

I have not noticed a size deferential from the days you drive no forklift to days you have driven a heavylift

I didn't see a choice for the subway and your feet... sometimes I rent a "ZipCar" -- it's a community car you can rent by the hour to 24-hours. Otherwise, I walk or take the subway (The "T" as it's affectionately called in Boston). I actually haven't driven a car/vehicle in a year and a half... last car I owned though was a 4-door sedan (Mitsubishi Galant).

I didn't vote because i don't drive, well not legally any way. But if i was going to be drive i would probably look at a Toyota Yaris.

As for bikes i'm sure my life would be cut drasticly short if i started riding one, Have had bad engough acciedents on a peddle bike, so i cann't say i'd trust my self with on a bike with an engine..

I just bought a 2006 GMC Sierra 2500 with a Duramax and Allison Transmission. It is an amazing truck and it will kick any imports ass. It has the growl of a deisel but gets almost 30 miles to the gallon interstate. My fun ride is a Aprillia Mille 1000 sport bike. I can't ride it very much though because I get tickets everytime I go out on it. Last time was for 150 in a 75, the fine was almost as much as the down payment on the bike was.

But the truck is my baby, leather interior, quad cab, It is loaded and I plan on keeping it for a while.

I kind of doubt your Chevy can touch a Nissan(by the way is American built and that GMC isn't). I love how these Big three companies spout their Hemi lies; just to sell the over-sized gas guzzlers.

Since my post was quoted I will defend it. Since my truck gets 29 miles to the gallon and in Wyoming we have the option of burining deisel with 25% recycled biofuel. What does your Nissan burn? 85 octane...what is that contributing to slowing the influx of greenhouse gasses? Imports such as 4 cylinder vehicles with mufflers the size of 5 gallon buckets and body kits. A deisel has so much more torque at lower RPM's than those cars and once the turbo is wound up the truck takes off.

A Nissan by the way would stand no chance at all in a Wyoming snow storm, or pulling a 6-place horse trailer up a highway with 5,000 feet of elevation gain. Can people even pull trailers with a Nissan or did the factory forget to glue the trailer hitch on the barbie mobiles? If a NIssan or any other small truck was ever in a real snow storm and got stuck, the driver would definitely have to thank the kind soul who pulls you out with their gas guzzling full-sized truck.

Face it, some people need full sized vehicles, and some people buy a "pick-up truck" because of an insecurity or the fact that they can't see over the steering wheel of a full-size truck.

If you want to keep debating the full size truck issue I can support it. Give it a try
