LOL - Mini-Trucks doesn't bother me in the least.

Kenny is just upset that he no longer fits in the Mini-trucks and he's had to move up to the Big Trucks. I heard he was looking at the new F450 just for the extra room.

Can I use the term as well? I like it! It's hard telling people about the truck. It's a 68 Chevy, but???? Then I cobble something together from there.

Later,
