Versus: Motorcycle vs. Truck



This is one of the more difficult Versus to date. I have owned both and now own neither, which makes me an expert on the subject.

Motorcycle:
Pros -
  • Freedom
  • High MPG's
  • Fast
  • Loud
  • Wife has to hug you to stay on
  • Chicks dig motorcycle guys
  • Cool to wear a leather jacket
  • Fairly inexpensive unless you by a Harley Davidson
Cons -
  • Unsafe
  • Doesn't go in reverse
  • Weather dependent
  • Can't carry a guitar with you
Truck:
Pros -
  • Bigger than everyone else
  • Truck bed - 'nuf said
  • Pull trailers
  • Don't have to keep it clean
  • There's somethin' women like about a pickup man
  • Safer than a car
  • Bench seats
Cons -
  • Low MPG's
  • Not conducive to passengers

If you only look at the cons of these two manly motor vehicles, it would be easy to pick one over the others, but it's not that easy. You see, there is just something about riding a motorcycle that carries a bit more weight in the pros than it does in the cons. Riding a motorcycle just releases something in a guy's mind, body, and spirit that nothing else does.

However, I've always wanted to have a truck. When my last one bit the dust, I was pretty bummed out. I really did love driving that thing even though it was a junker.

Without further ado, the winner of this versus is...TRUCK.

hmmm... this seems like a very compelling argument.
