Exceptional My relationship with trucks Ode to a Pickup by Earl Corp "my truck" writing prompt entry

I’ve had pretty good luck, When shopping for a pickup truck, For over a million miles, I’ve driven in a pickup with a smile.   It was a big source of pride, That a 1968 GMC was my first ride, If this counts I do not know, The next was a 1970 El Camino,   While in Germany I was thrifty, I got home and bought an F-150, Best truck I owned in my life, Missed it more than my first wife,   It might not seem major,  Next truck came a Ford Ranger, I wish I could say I had a Tacoma, Instead I drove a GMC Sonoma,   I looked at a Toyota, But drove off in a Dodge Dakota, Two hundred thousand miles later, I’m back in a Ford Ranger,   I have to put this bluntly, You need a pickup in the country, As I’ll readily admit, You always need it,   This is without a doubt, Something you can’t do without, If you have no pickup truck, You’re gonna be stuck like Chuck.   Writing Prompt Write a poem, true or fictional, about a pick-up-truck. Use your imagination. Must rhyme, length up to author. Recognized Author Notes * Word count 172 * I told the truth and made it rhyme https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9I51JXpcLwk
