Overview of a Pickup Truck


            Its classic style body is tinier than trucks made today. The white sides of the truck are lined in rust and a red line between the white extends from the front license plate to the hood to the top of the cab. Both the front and back license plates are rustier than the truck itself making it exceedingly difficult to distinguish the navy blue embossed letters reading "D0ORD13." On the end of the hood, four evenly-spaced, white letters spell out in all caps FORD.
             Four black tires reading "COOPER" on the side, barely have any tread left on them, yet they continue to haul the truck down the dusty hollow with ease. Thirty miles over the speed limit on the gravel encrusted road has erased every zigzag indention that was once drawn into the rubber. Bits of tread peel away now like cheese on a cheese-grater. These tires will not be replaced any time soon though. They will continually ride into every etched pot hole, sending the crazy driver soaring through the air. The rugged tires surround white, rusty rims without any bar, hole, or groove to them like the rims of a tractor trailer. The outer two inches of the rim flatten at the tires, but the center is raised. Each chipped, white rim supports the donut shape of the mounted tire making the wheels. Skinny, yet strong, suspension bars connect to the wheels elevating the body of the truck almost a foot higher above the tires.
             The bed of the red and white truck is lined in black and only extends about six feet. Small humps on either side of the bed are created by the arch of the back wheels. On rides up dusty mountains, people sit on top of these semicircles. With the wind rushing through their hair, they holler at other drivers and laugh with others lying in the truck bed. Even the slightest turn sends them falling forward or even completely overboard unless they're holding on. Parallel cylindrical grooves make up wheel wells that cover the bed running from the cab to the tailgate.
