What is your 22 rimfire "truck gun"? I know a lot of people carry bigger power (and you can throw that out there), but most people carry the lowly 22.
My dads was a remington pump model 12 or a marlin glenfield 22 or a Marlin bolt 22 mag with removable magazine. The favorite was the 22 mag because it had more power.
When I go back to the farm, its usually a ruger 10/22 because of the carbine size and magazine feed. I'll throw in the 77/22 target if I know I am going to pick off pigeons off the tin shed roofs, but its an expensive rifle for knocking around.
So what are your truck guns? Extra credit for pictures.
Edit: In Minnesota, we are required to be cased & unloaded so magazine fed guns rule.

humdinger - mine is a new/old "Franken-Ruger" 10/22. Took the action from a new 'compact' w/16 inch barrel and installed it using an ancient full size LOP Ruger stock. Added a new Ruger after-market trigger group (2.5#) and an old steel Weaver K2.5X w/ dual X scope. Now I have an accurate, very handy Jeep .22LR. Homesteader

Marlin 982S with a 3.5-10x40 Simmons Whitetail Classic in B-Square SUV low alloy rings and a Rossi 515, both .22 Magnums, but I have a set of six chamber inserts to allow me to plink with .22LR ammo in the Rossi or loaded singly in the Marlin.

Marlin Model 60 Carbine with a tube fed magazine lives in my truck 24 / 7
Don't leave my Nylon 66 in there any more. It's getting too dang valuable and hard to replace!

Foxy lady liberal says, "Would you shoot a varmint in my chicken coop."
The gun to take is a $35 Marlin single shot 22 that is pre 68 with no serial numbers.
Be ready to walk away from it. "I have never seen that gun before."
Take condoms.

I ate armadillo in Zipolite Mexico in 1972. The hunter killed it with a stick and sold to to a restaurant [picnic bench owner]. I probably paid 10 pesos.
Now it has become horribly expensive and you have to know someone.
