I photographed a lot in the old days of film, light meters and self focus cameras. My new camera is so over the top with options, I'm overwhelmed. I'm trying to learn how to put it on manual and set my own exposures. However, the autofocus will help me tremendously.

I don't drive my truck much.....mostly a winter vehicle or when it rains and I cant ride my bike....Truck only has 12K on it and I've had it over 2 years...

Spoat, the B&W of your 150 is great! KM

I think regular cabs have the best look, especially with the long bed. If I was a loner and just didn't want/need the extra interior space of a crew cab then i'd have a regular cab for sure. Plus there's the whole "I have a family so others ride with me sometimes" thing that gets in the way.
