I think you have the links and the pictures switched. The Ford link is to a Ford the Chevy link is to a Chevy?

We've been using pickups for Police and Rescue and FGC around here for many, many years. Why is this new?

looks like it got fixed after I commented.

 

State patrol likes 1/2 ton and 3/4 ton trucks for their commercial enforcement rigs.

Forest service also uses 4wd trucks for their vehicles.

 

It's nothing new, just now they seem to be designating a certain model, and it will probably have the standard police upgrades like in the past they used to do larger radiators and other stuff in the police interceptors

Wow.  You hit a narrow window where I had it wrong and then went back and corrected it.  Where were you when I was running a quality assurance lab?

If your homeless guys  are so flush with 2 x 4s and shivs, why do they need $20?

 

Diversity training. None of their **** is pressure treated. Except for the queers.

I'm more of a watching the paint dry kind of guy. 

But hey, this thread has the word random in the title.  So, I'm all over it.

Nana had that.

And they had a toaster that was just a cord and an element that zig-zagged back and forth across a small A-frame.  No on/off switch, just plug it in.  No cover,  just red glowing wires, sitting on the table.  You leaned the toast up against it and then carefully and quickly grabbed it to flip it to the other side.

Reminds me of a [probably] shop worn joke:

A stock broker at the retail level was chatting up a prospective client and took the prospect to the yacht club for lunch. The broker started pointing: There is our president’s yacht. Over there is the sales manager’s. And here is the one owned by our top advisor. The prospect responded “But where are the customers’ yachts?”
