The Brick

The Brick is my truck, a 1986 Chevrolet K-10 (0.5 ton, four wheel drive). It's named the brick as a combination of two things
  1. It is colored "Canyon Copper". In other words, it has a color similar to that of a masonry brick.
  2. There's an old adage about airplanes, that "If you put a large enough of an engine on it, even a _Brick_ can fly". (I've often seen the F4 Phantom refered to that way). In other words, a triumph of brute strength over aerodynamics. Well... that's a good description of my truck. It's as aerodynamic as a brick, and has a goodly sized V8 just to keep it rolling.
