So, what is the attraction?

I've recently been wondering, "What is it about these old trucks that trips our cumulative triggers?" After reviewing "Johnny's" remarks and replies, I ask:

Are we attracted to Power Wagons because:
1 Their historic value
2) Their design / simplicity
3) The Dodge nameplate
4) Their functionality
5) The inherant "cool" factor, and staring people as we drive by.

What is the root of this affliction? cliff
