I rec'd this pic from a friend that was in a joke about the DEA on a farmers land somewhere in Texas. I then noticed the GMC parked in the background.

I have no idea who it might belong to. Thought someone might recognize it.

Is this one of those trick "find the GMC in the photo" things? Recognize it? I couldn't even find it.

Bill,

No trick.  It's in the background, over on the left.  Kinda neat.

I rec'd the picture in a joke from a friend, that went this way; [The DEA came onto the ranchers property (a few 100 acres) in Texas and informed him that they were going to search his property for illegal plants, ie: marijuana. He told them not to go in the pasture fenced in, back in the corner. The agent then flashed his "badge" & let the rancher know that he could go anywhere he wanted to, anytime he wanted to, because he was a Federal DEA agent. The next thing the rancher heard were blood curdling screams. The next picture showed a 2000#+ Santa Gertrudus bull in the pasture in the corner. The rancher hollared loudly, "show him your badge, he doesn't know you're a federal agent".]

That's when I noticed the GMC in the left background of the picture.

It wasn't a game, but it was interesting to see it sitting there.

I was watching "Rockford Files" on Retro TV last night.
The program was called 'Queen of Peru'
and James Garner was trying to find an old Winnabago.
There were shots of 2 or 3 GMCs in the various scenes ~

Rockford files was from 74 to 80. At that time GMCs would be considered to be relatively new.

So the question now is - how many of us reading this don't think the Rockford Files is that old?
