Anyway...
>>29136204why is it that every photo of these is some ultra-tacky restomod interior? why is it so hard to find photos of the stock interior?
>>29136214Because classic trucks are a huge trend with zoomers right now and they buy them with the intention of making the interior as tacky and tech-forward as possible.
>>29136214because stupid boomer restomod interiors with LED lights
>proving im not a fag, attempt nr. 4178
>>29136204why do incels on here LARP as blue collar men?
>>29136204boomer trucks were primitive shit we've come a long way since then
I have 4th and 7th gen Chevy trucks, they both earned their keep hauling firewood and construction materials. Now I have an F150 nutruck that hauls ass and whatever else I want it to. I'd rather be driving the old trucks but 10 mpg or less is mildly annoying, and the nutruck has shitloads of power and is whisper quiet. I don't give a single shit what some mongoloid queer like op thinks about it from his stall at the bus station
>>29136204the left didn't have NSA spycams in the dash
>>29136214Because the stock interiors are a garbage design.Do you go furniture shopping for a couch that looked.like the one grandma had?
>>29136270>Because the stock interiors are a garbage design.>Do you go furniture shopping for a couch that looked.like the one grandma had?
>>29136214If you want stock interiors, look for vehicles on auction/barn find/estate sale sites.t. autist who collects reference photos
>>29136204thiswithout a truck on the left nobody would even think that I'm a manthank god for old trucks
>>29136233best response in the thread. a person who actually owns a vehicle.
>>29136290>has no argument.
>>29136380You got btfo. Tasteless zoomer faggot.
>>29136290Yes, I do go shop for couches that look like the one grandma had. Millennial gray furniture is ugly and boring as sin.
>>29136216Wrong generation anon.It's almost all GenX and millennials..t millennial brother bought a 69 f100 recently.And it drives like shit.
>>29136390You're probably right, but when the zoomers that manage to have money do it, they make some revolting shit that's also somehow boring simultaneously.
>>29136204>"hurrr they don't make them like they used to simple and conventional">Makes a vehicle like they used to>"how outdated and yuck! Don't manufacturers try anymore?? why is it 50K!!!!!" Pic related.
>>29136270>>29136290No he's right, there was one short period when boomers were babies and little kids that cheap wagie cars had decent interiors. Everything before and after is poorslop.
>>29136412We are still getting paid 2021 salaries, we can't afford 2026 prices.
why is it the Chinese and Indians can get a basic truck like it's 1988 and we can't?
>>29136418>No he's right, there was one short period when boomers were babies and little kids that cheap wagie cars had decent interiors. Everything before and after is poorslop.when was that?
>>29136390Sounds like you don't have the Flex-o-matic rear leafs or a Bendix power steering.t. has both and it rides great
>>29136390yeah it was a work truck not a Karenmobile. what about it?
>>29136401Imma defensive driver instructor.It's a small driving school we do a few times a year for newer drivers.Includes stuff like avoidance maneuvers, stop boxes and a but of light autocross.The zoom zooms are usually driving shit boxes like 2000 Toyotas or hondas The zoomies with more car guy cars are all mid 90s to 2000s shit.They aren't buying 70s trucks >>29136419Sucks you aren't part of a union..t just negotiated a 9% raise for 2026 alone.
>>29136451the Suburban in this time was also crude and hard-riding. it only became civilized with the 7th gen which had more luxury features and a softer suspension.
Peak masculinity for sure.
>>29136448>>29136451My father owns a 1965 C10 that has newer shocks, power steering, and that's it.Rides and drives 10X better than that F100.Even though the f100 has new everything.Idk why anyone even bought a Ford over Chevys truck offerings in the 60sMaybe the price?
>>29136458yeah? GM was the bigger company and their trucks had a higher R&D budget than Ford's.
>>29136460>>29136458Dodge would have been worse, but back at that time their pickup trucks were mostly for the fleet market and they didn't sell many retail ones compared to Ford and GM.
>>29136460This is true for their passenger cars as well. If you drove any GM car from the 50s-60s and then drove a Ford or Chrysler one, the difference in interiors, ride, handling, and drivetrain refinement is fairly stark.
>>29136382I have (2) 1960s trucks.They were designed to be utilitarian, not comfortable or ergonomic.So you can fuck off, poser notruck basement dweller.
>>29136469The truck division at Ford and GM was considered punishment for engineers who screwed up elsewhere and nobody wanted to be assigned to it. It was only in the 70s when the luxury truck started to emerge as a concept.
>>29136204Have you been in a modern piece of earth moving or agriculture machinery? Their interiors are opulent as well. Ever hear the expression work smart not hard? Being unproductive and uncomfortable doesn't make you any more of a man. It makes you more of a woman if anything.
>>29136469if your truck has air conditioning and a radio (these were considered luxuries in the 60s) it is a luxury truck.If you want to prove how much you love being uncomfortable while you work, strip out the soft bench sits and install flat metal plating.
>>29136204I'm not a retard so I don't get confused when there are computers, sensors, codes, electronics and what have you in the car. I also know most of these things are standard development items as a joint electronic suite for all vehicles across a brand's lineup. It would ironically, actually be them going out of their way in the pursuit of performative fashion and 2010s era lumberjack beard oil hipster effeminate insecurity, would be the gay taylor swift thing to do.
>>29136483>derf I must have heated leather seats, a beverage holder for my latte, and Bluetooth before I can excavate dirtMillenials, people.
>>29136493yeah we're total candy-asses compared to our grandfathers generation. what about it?
>>29136465GM vehicles in the 60s usually always had higher resale value on the used car market.
The ironic thing is that actual contractor companies use relatively modern trucks, and the classics are always driven by hipster millennials trying to look like real men or something
>>29136501my neighbor has a guy who mows her lawn and he usually has a mid-70s Ford pickup
>>29136501like why do these fags think if they smoke bad cigarettes and listen to the Eagles or Clapton in their 73 C10 that they will achieve testosterone?
>>29136493this happened when they started letting more women into the workforce and they demanded their creature comforts
>>29136501>The ironic thing is that actual contractor companies use relatively modern trucks, andare driven by Mexicans anyway
>>29136469If you aren't being kicked in the balls ten times an hour you don't have a real job
>>29136204Literally the same picture.
>>29136523you've never been inside a 60s-70s truck, zoomie. no we've come a long way. the 70s ones are crude and rattly as hell. no modern truck's gonna have the dashboard vibrating from the engine. that used to be normal and expected.
>>29136510It's the inner voice of a domesticated modern man yearning for masculinity and their reference is stereotypes and tropes in culture. Unfortunately real masculinity is impossible in 2026, not because of muh liberals, but because of the way western society itself is set up, but I digress.
>>29136204Fixed ur image there bud
>>29136510That's what their fathers, or substitute fathers told them they needed to.
>>29136204>>29136214>its actually not a truck used for work its some boomers hobby pavement princesslmao
>>29136214yuck
>>29136538You know, at some point you have to admit that the guy on the left fucked up in some way
>nooooo the guy who spends 4 hours a day driving to and from work sites all over his county would definitely hate having radar cruise control, he would never want ventilated massaging seats after contorting beneath a counter to replace a sink macerator that would be awfulyou've never actually been around a anyone in the trades, they love this shit because it makes the dull part of their job less shit
>>29136222>incelsthat's the issue
>>29136214What's not stock enough about OP's photo? The door cards and seat being re-upholstered? Hell those might have even been original factory options.
>>29136222Incel here, i don't do that. 24 year old KHHV
>>29136572They love it but never drive it because they spend all their money on cigarettes and getting wasted every night of the week.
>>29136510https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protestant_work_ethic
>>29136619I think he meant most of those photos are restomods.
>>29136204get in an accident in the left and you die. also there was no requirement for light trucks in USA to have collapsible steering column until 1981 (it had been required on passenger cars since 68)
>>29136290My son wrecked my couch 15 years ago as a toddler. It was my grandma's. I miss it still.
>>29136214fat tasteless gen x retards love dropping $130k on a restored classic truck to remind them of when their dick worked and when their wife weighed less than 200 pounds.
>>29136214Why look on the internet? Just take a picture of your truck interior.
>>29136780>fat tasteless gen x retards love dropping $130k on a restored classic truck to remind them of when their dick worked and when their wife weighed less than 200 pounds.that's the problem. give them a prime 19 yo from the local campus and their dick would magically start working again.
you mean you can't get a goddamn basic work truck in the 21st century?
>>29136833You can but they all go to fleet sales and dealer lots only carry the Karenmobiles in the OP, unless you custom order the thing.
>>29136493>t. Never done manual labor a day in their life.
You're just being dishonest with yourself.It's a really nice car/truck!You just don't like the people driving it.I guarantee, if I had to pick between the two without fear-of-cost, I'll pick the brand new truck, thanks.
>>2913620470s trucks look luxurious compared to 50s ones.
>>29136877Also again, a whole lot of shitty restomod interiors.
>>29136880Have you ever stopped to think maybe there was a reason they modded to that instead of a stock bench? It I’m gonna redo my interior I’m gonna put better stuff in.
>>29136880"shitty" is just your opinion.And nobody gives a fuck about your opinion.Theyre not your vehicles. Go buy something else.If you want a reupholstery kit from LMC for your own restoration then do it. More people have restored their factory seats than done restomod interiors.Youre just some faggot basement dweller trying to make a nonissue into some conspiracy.
>>29136880restomodfags are hipsters who like the look of an old vehicle but don't actually want to drive one
>>29136884nta but while i won't say it's a conspiracy, still, the search algorithm does push all of those to the top
>>29136886^This.>>29136884>>29136882This is a hipster btw.
>>29136895These are the top results I get for "1960s pickup truck interiors"
>>29136895it's not a conspiracy, just websites that pay Google to push them to the top
>>29136902Post truck
>>29136870I dunno.>>29136877They seem to have gotten by ok back then when there were no cupholders, heated seats, and WiFi.
>>29136912>They seem to have gotten by ok back then when there were no cupholders, heated seats, and WiFi.do you have any idea how much tougher that generation was? as T levels have dropped we've become more feminine and require creature comforts.
>>29136913>you are soft you didn’t have to break your back for 9 hours at the ballcrushing factory.Times got better Jim, comforts help keepYour back from disintegrating while you do work now.
>>29136902Post truck retard. I’ve been in both and newer is far better
>>29136880it's a Ferd/Chebby thing. pull up Dodge trucks and only a few restomod ones come up and it's mostly stock interiors.
>>29136913^This. At best you have >>29136510 yearning for the masculinity they will never have.
>>29136919>>29136461explained here. Dodge trucks were mostly sold to the fleet market back then.
>>29136913>>>/tv/223996076and this guy proves it
>>29136769Pussy
>>29136908>>29136917HIPSTER NIGGERFAGGOT
>>29136925What did the /tv/ poster post? Fucking jannies there deleted it.
>>29136769true but most already did have collapsible columns well before 81
>>29136939I hate hipsters, post anything cause right now your word is worth shit
>>29136942https://archive.4plebs.org/tv/thread/223991822/#223996076
>>29136939Post your vintage truck you fucking poser dipshit basement dweller>you wont because youre notruck.I will 100% rip out this piece of shit bench seat that feels like a lawn chair for a nice 40/20/40.Because I actually drive a classic truck and am familiar with how shit the interiors are and I dont want to feel like im on a city bus.It already has full LED upgrades so you can cry about that too you little bitch.
>>29136997>I will 100% rip out this piece of shit bench seat that feels like a lawn chair for a nice 40/20/40.>Because I actually drive a classic truck and am familiar with how shit the interiors are and I dont want to feel like im on a city bus.>It already has full LED upgrades so you can cry about that too you little bitch.>>29136290:^)
>oh no its not factory!!!!I dont hear you griping about the lack of bias ply tires.Or what about leaded gas?If you complain about custom interiors but didnt even think about modern radials then its not about keeping the vehicle original but what your special snowflake perception is about a vehicle you dont even own, and never will.I dont think you even belong on this board.
>>29136997Except the bench seats are maximum comfy... T. Connoisseur of old ferds.
Excepting the seatbelts this is 100% stock.
>>29137033Theres virtually no adjustment in a vintage bench seat. If thats what you find comfortable it just shows you havent driven anything of beyond poverty spec shitboxes.
>>29136997Retard notruck, what's a 20/40/20?
>>29136214Truck used by men to do work
>>29137481A 40/20/40 is 2 bucket seats with a center portion that can be a bench type seat with arm rests and center console folded up.A 60/40 is similar but only in 2 pieces. Pic is my Ranger 60/40 without the center console arm rest/cup holder.
>>29137067They don't need adjustment, it's padded and springy and perfect. Anything more is just retarded bloat. Let me guess you want heated seats for your sore ass? Lol. Get the fuck out of here with that nonsense. The only option that might be an upgrade would be an air ride seat, but that would be overkill for any pickup truck. A tractor that you're bouncing across furrows with on the daily yes. Semi truck that you're putting a million miles on yearly on some rough as shit roads, sure. Pickup? Nah, they're already comfy enough as is.
>>29137481And just to clarify.This is a 1986 Fullsize Bronco with Captain's chairs and removable (cooler) center console.I also have one of these but its out at my hunting cabin (deer season started a week ago) and this is a better pic to explain the setup than what I have saved.In a 40/20/40 or a 60/40, the arm rest/ center console folds up to be the back of the chair for a middle passenger.With buckets or captains chairs there is no center position.
>>29137490>Let me guess you want heated seatsAlright little bitch.Let me school you.I ditched the A/C in my mustang because I didnt like where the accessories were positioned with the paxton kit on my 347.I was in Las Vegas.My first summer there was 63 days where the temperature never went below 95°F.Im talking 2 months of 4 A.M. and its 98 degrees and at noon its 112°.In a black car.I would get off work and find pieces of bic lighters scattered around my car because it exploded from the heat. (100% true).So you can eat a fucking dick with your "omg he wants to be pampered" bullshit.I dont want to herniate a disc when I hit a speed bump.I want to recline my seat when im on a 1,400 mile trip. I want to actually enjoy my drive.And the factory bench is bean counter garbage.Go ahead, discuss more with me.
>>29137503Lol. You could have just gone ahead and said you were a giant pussy. Bench seat is fine, you're a pampered little bitch. End of story... Don't forget to subscribe to the monthly plan for your prostate massager seat on your goy-mobile. Wouldn't want you to have to live without that little quirk.
>>29137506Post your truck.These 2 are mine>>29136997>>29137488
>>29137510Which ones? The ones with bench seats, or the ones without?
>>2913751266 has a bench68 has a bench85 has captains chairs89 has a bench95 has a 60/4099 has 40/20/4015 has hybrid buckets/captains chairs.
>>29137512Oh I get it, its the faggot ram 2500 poser.Lol.I thought you were a real poster.Bye.
>>29136204>Anyway...yeah because we take to work the restored classic like some faggot. You probably still live at your mother's house and that's why you don't know what vehicles are actually used for utility and service work. When you're dead tired during break or after work, you'll want a nice, working AC with a usable stereo headunit. Also enough seat and cabin space in there to smash your girlfriend too while isn't with you.
>>29137518That's nice dear. Yeah I know, my 62 F100 has a bench, 69 F-100 has a bench, all my 70's ford trucks have benches, 94 F-350 has a bench, 95 F-superduty has a bench, 95 F-800 has a bench, 95 F-250 has 40/20/40, All my superduties have 40/20/40 fronts... One ranger i have has the 60/40. I honestly don't have many interior pictures, because who the hell takes pictures of their interiors? Nothing wrong with any of the bench seats, you're just weak. >>29137519Don't have a clue who you're talking about. How did you get dodge from my picture?
>>29136204You can get an E450 for less than some F150s, just get a cab chassis and put a bed on it. Way more capable than any cucktruck except the highly expensive models, and bare bones as hell with even manual windows and locks still offered. Or a cabover cab chassis and put a bed on it.The reason most men buy trucks is not fir their work ability, it's for looks and a false sense of masculinity. Cucktrucks are not practical and ridiculously priced, but some feel they need to buy a sense of ruggedness and masculinity.
>>29137591Lolz tell us more about masculinity you ninny. You're projecting so hardYou're five foot three
>>29137525>Paddles are fine. If you use an outboard motor you're weak.>Shovel is fine. If you use a backhoe you're weak.>Iron sights are fine. If you use optics you're weak.>Fan is fine. If you use A/C you're weak.
>>29137912Except for those are all extreme strawman arguments. If the vehicle came with a bench seat factory then you don't need the vibrating prostate massager 3000 version for your weak ass. Boats are completely retarded and a waste of money.Shovel is fine and even superior for small/tight quarters tasks, so unless you're trenching or digging a huge hole a backhoe isn't even close to the same tool for the job, also how would you possibly use a backhoe because they don't come with lazyboy recliners with back massagers in them? Not that you'd know you absolute poornigger.Iron sights are fine, and sometimes superior to optics. But each has their place and time.Fans are fucking amazing for moving air around. A/C is great in the month long 110 degree heat (which I also live in so don't give me any sad fucking stories about your poor little lighter blowing up you giant flapping pussy.) Oh no, how could I ever manage to drive pic-rel manure truck, it has a bench seat! Oh the horror! Better get on 4chan and cry about it like some limp-wristed faggot.
>>29137939>has to talk about an imaginary prostate massager so their argument makes sense.Its amazing that you have to discuss sexual deviance in a conversation about seats. Says a lot about you.The rest of your post is just pitiful. Its obvious you were never on the debate team.>b-b-but the bench seat was factory so it's fine!!!That just shows you live in poverty. I guess engine swaps are verboten also.What about models that had a bench as standard but higher trims had something else? Are you going to pull out captain's chairs and replace them with a bench?
>>29137949It's amazing your ass is so weak a bench seat is like pure torture for you, I'm assuming every other aspect of your life is similar torture because of your weakness, and you are a scrawny limp wristed fag that needs the soibot to open your sqround bottles for you because your strength is waning. Also you talk about poverty when it's painfully obvious you have no money. If the stock engine is worn the fuck out and an engine swap is a viable option, then yeah I'd do an engine swap. If the captain's chairs are worn out then you bet your weak ass I'd swap to a bench seat over captain's chairs.
>>29137957Bench sucks compared to an actual chair. No sane person would do that swap.
>>29137939>driving a load of manureHahahahahahhahaYou thought this was some kind of "manly" flex!?!?Your life really is shit.Literally.
>>29137975Just goes to show you've never even driven over rough ground, yet your sore ass can't handle anything... Really proves the point how weak you are.
>>29138582>still playing the same tired noteNobody is interested in life lessons from someone who shovels shit for a living.
>>29136877like everything, the ads changed with the times. this looks like a John Ford movie.
and in this one he's talking to the implied hitchhiker/prostitute
>>29136204Bench seat is a deal breaker. I don't want to go slipping and sliding
>>29138768Lol. You wanted opinions on work trucks. Well you're getting it straight from the source. Its obvious you don't ever actually do anything except bitch and cry about your dainty ass, so why don't you just get an EV with heated/air conditioned massage seats? Some of us actually do real work kid. You think that's all I do is haul shit? Lol, lmao even. That's was just an example of one of the roughest rides you can have in a leaf spring truck bouncing across a field for hours on end so hard you'll beat your head against the ceiling. Bench seat is still perfectly fine in that application. You're weak.
>>29138887>You wanted opinions on work trucks.I dont see anywhere itt that was brought up except from you.You think youre hardcore because you like bench seats but it just proves youre an idiot.Ive been in the sandbox running an M978 from Anaconda to Mosul.You have no fucking clue what real pain is.Enjoy your backwoods, poverty stricken, sister fucking life i guess but personally im sick of hearing from you. Consider yourself on mute.
>>29136427>whybecause muh environment
>>29139030Lol, you're such a giant candy ass you can't even handle someone disagreeing with you on 4chan. Jesus fucking Christ dude, grow a pair.
>>29139298Hey umm.Have you noticed that nobody has taken your side (?)Maybe you should stop and reflect on that fact for awhile....
>>29139327Have you noticed you have such a dainty little tushy you get butthurt at the truth? There are several other posters in this thread saying the same things I have said. You just took what I said about bench seats being comfy super personal for some strange reason and have been getting your ass handed to you over and over again.First you wanted me to post pictures of my "trucks" because your two disgusting interior pictures of your filth mobiles were some kind of big flex I guess? So I posted some pictures of my trucks. You then somehow mistook an obvious Ford for a Dodge, because you're such a massive cock-hungry faggot you obviously can't even think straight... Then I posted trucks I actually own, used for real work that I do, that have honest to god bench seats in them, and get driven over rougher terrain than you'll ever see in your pavement pounding life, and all you can say is "ACKTUALLY bench seats just suck and are for poors, because I'm a giant pussy and just say so. OK? No one is talking about work trucks" When the fucking OP for the entire thread was "Truck used by men to do work vs. Yuppie spaceship designed to transport Becky to planet fitness and taylor swift concert" Any more goalpost moving you want to do there little guy? Maybe you want to talk more about "herniating a disc when you hit a speed bump?" or "wanting to recline your seat when meeting up with your grinder dates?" Or how rough you had it that one summer when it didn't get below 95 degrees and your poor self had to sweat a bit? Want to talk more about poverty? I guaran-fuckin-tee I have more liquid cash floating around than you do, and way more assets too. Go ahead and let it all out lil buddy... this is your therapy session. Go ahead and let us all know how hard you have it and have a good cry.
>>29137957what is the point to a bench seat when a chair that every other model that the company builds can just be bolted in the truck?
