Classy, impressive, and workhorses (every single one of them, at one time or another), these trucks were a way of life for their first owners, and now they’re finding new love from those of us who have the time and money to put some T.L.C. into them. Here’s a look at the classic trucks that classy Texans are putting back on the road, effectively driving away with our hearts!
