When are you going to show us some more pictures of your '52? What is your problem - you ran out of pictures to pirate off of www.pickuptruck.com?
Here's where Libby got her pictures:

I'd love to see a Tundra in the back of any Silverado VS any Ado in the back of a Tundra....what is it's max payload?....2000?....1800?
I'd compare the new HD's payloads of 4000 plus to the HD Tundras...but....DOHH
..OK...how about the long beds.....DOHH
..OK OK..get real....let's just compare full size truck basic features....dohh....it's not full size!
...."Cuz them yuppy's be thinkin'..."........
I had to stir it a bit before I leave for a week for hunting........good luck to all

Seriously though, I loaded my bicycles in the bed for several months. I just put them in a large pile in the bed. The handlebars and pedals kept getting tangled in the spokes. It is also a pain climbing in and out of the bed. Another bear is the need to have someone hand you the bikes one by one when loading. When I got where I was going I would have to hand the bikes down one by one.
I got a bike rack about 2 months ago. I can mount it in the 2" receiver in about 2 minutes. The bikes are very easy to load and unload single handed. It works great! I am regretting not getting it when I first bought the truck.
As you can see by the lack of a bedliner, I am not concerned about damaging the bed. Its a truck! I may eventually get a spray-in but I am not in any hurry. I would probably get an under the rail and put rail caps on.
I KNEW it! Regrets getting the truck too. Buyers remorse!
What's up with justtheone? "Good luck on this one now." "yuppies" We're GEN-X'ers. You have a computer you should be up to date. I guess you think that stuff is funny. #626 was great, I guess over the years you moved the gas fill neck somewhere else, right?
What's mgdvhman? Buy a vowel.
Tundra vs. the big three. Come on, in your dreams. Tundra has enough trouble with the Nissan. Besides its butt ugly, they would have done better putting the Camry on a 4x4 chassis. At least somebody would notice it.
Penske buying DUDge might be the best thing to happen to them. Look what he's done for Wallace & Mayfield.
On a serious note, I can't wait to see & drive the new Chevy. I'v got the v10 but could always use more power. I've owned Ford and GM and the only difference I see is personal preference. These two are the only real trucks that cut it.
As things go here I'm sure to get BLASTED. I'll be getting back on next weekend. The pisser is I spend all my money on the truck and the trips I take in it. Ain't got no money left for my own 'puter and net service.
MGDVHMAN hehe i totally ingore that now i associate it with tim
By the way tim seen you posting about GVWR in the other topic i thought you were going out of town

And here is the original article:
http://www.pickuptruck.com/html/history/chev_segment5.html
Has Libby been smoking too much of that bottom leaf tobacco she has been growing? Has she addled what little brain she has left? Does she really believe that she owns a '52? You be the judge.
1) They ain't got no haul, do you be seein anything in the back of them midsize trucks? Do you see em pullin anything?
2) They ain't fullsize, they don't look too big to me, I bet if a Tundra was parked next to one of those limited '52 Chevies, the Chevy might be lookin pretty tiny!
3) They're for show, people own these midsize trucks cause they be chasin the fad. They want an antique, something nobody else has.
4) Outdated, is there even suspension on that bad boy?
5) Small engine, first V-8's appeared a few years later, they had a little 6 cylinder, with less power than a VW Beetle.
6) Look at that pickup box, tell me that's fullsize!
7) I bet those headlights were powerful!
8) "In 1949 the gas tank was moved to inside the cab behind the seat back." Hmm, sounds safe-not only can you explode during a collision, you can also get high by the gas fumes. (Of couse, this might be a positive thing for justtheone)
Justtheone, I'll post pics of me pulling a tractor or two with my Tundra when the tractor pullin' season comes along.
'bout 90 posts read and only one response.
bama, i'd like to take you back to your post #947:
"Sat 11 Nov '00 (08:03 AM)
'I was responding to obyone who says everything GM
makes is from mexico.'
Obyone never said any such thing. You are
sounding like BCO - make things up as you go."
um, actually, if you read oby's post #443:
"Fri 10 Nov '00 (09:50 PM)
GM vehicles are MADE IN MEXICO....just to spite
the union....mostly Tahoes and Yukons...and from
the postings that I've read...the Mexicans do a
better job..LMAO!!"
he does say gm's are built in mexico. perhaps not ALL gm's, but he did say that gm's are made in mexico.
more importantly to me is your last statement:
"You are sounding like BCO - make things up as you go."
i'm intrigued. what exactly have i "made up"? i mean, can you give me ONE example of where i've "made something up", lied, or intentionally deceived someone?
thanks in advance.
bco
BTW...it's spelled "foreign"...
Good job Bama...Libbys going down quick on this latest tell.
Where be all them hi-lux ones now? Good luck on this one now?
Still blowing that bottom leaf smoke. Its bad enough being a hick - but a hick that lies?
