Short Wave Sportfishing December 29th 07 09:07 PM

I am so ashamed...
 
of myself.

Tried a F-250, 5.7 liter Ford pickup - towed the boat fine, but for
some reason, I'm not really happy with Fords at the moment.

Tried a 2500 Silverado Diesel - not happy with it - wasn't
comfortable, didn't like the seat belt set up and I didn't like the
interior design. Towed ok.

Tried a Dodge Ram 2500 Quad cab - 5.7 Hemi sucks.

Tried a GMC 2500 Sierra - eh - fancy Silverado and I had the same
complaints.

Tried a Toyota Tundra just for yucks.

You will not believe what I ended up buying pending the resolution of
the F-150 issue.

If it's the Tundra, I hope you have nothing but good luck with it.
A gambling man, would probably go with the odds... so why not you with your
truck.

Obviously an American dominated newsgroup here?
Haven't you wondered why many hundreds of outback stations refuse to use
anything else than what you found out was the best?
Their lives depend on those vehicles.
Have you seen what vehicle "they" use in Afganistan with half a dozen gun
toting goons in the back?
Forget the flashy stuff & just get the workhorse.
