The 1950 F1 is my favorite old truck of all time.

Oh, wow - I always thought Ford trucks of that era looked like they had the faces of thermal-vent fish. I find the headlights inside the fenders to be disconcerting, and skip right over Fords from '48 - '50. Even the '43- '47s have them uncomfortably inward on the fenders.

I'm not sure what was going on with the grills from '51 and '52, but they got it all straightened out by the '53s. All in all, looking at old trucks makes me think that Ford needed their own Harley Earl. The pre-war stuff was gorgeous.

One day I'd like to own an old truck with a more modern drivetrain, hopefully in 4wd and something I can use as a truck to tow things.

I've got the world's most conservative CPA, but I think that's a perfectly defensible business purchase.
