A well written fun poem to detail your history of pick-up trucks. The rhyme mostly works, the rhythm too, and you have composed a good entry for the competition.

There are a few parts where the piece sputters kind of like an old truck - other than that slight bump in the road, I thought this was a well constructed piece and I liked the way you managed the truck names into it. Great work and good luck. Later daze.

Having driven Cadillacs for over 20 years I never appreciated a pickup truck until my son bought one while in college. Everyone should have one! Cute poem.

Your poem is an a delightful Ode to your line of successive pickup trucks. I enjoyed the rundown and felt your love for almost everyone. A very cute entry that I chuckled through as I read :-)

I wish you luck in the contest.

Oh, that was a lot of fun! Amusing, good humor, well sustained rhyming and a killer picture!

I looked at a Toyota,
But drove off in a Dodge Dakota,
Two hundred thousand miles later,
I'm back in a Ford Ranger

Loved it. Excellent entry, good luck in the contest.

A very good poem about the pick up truck. Great rhyming and I notice you named a lot of different models, so as not to let anyone be left out. I like the bit of humour (or I hope it was humour) " Best truck I owned in my life,
Missed it more than my first wife,"

A lot of people love to drive pickup trucks in the countryside apart from commercial trucks. Being on the road for long hours isn't easy. It's tiring and tough at times when you're away from home for a long time. Music usually will help you fight the blues and enjoy your road trip. I enjoyed your well-written ode to the truck. Good luck in the contest!

But how do you really feel about pickup trucks? :) I love this well rhymed journey you took us on, from one truck to another. A terrific contest entry, I wish you luck. :)
