I am going to keep my F150 thank you. Nice ride and pulls a boat and has
4x4 for the winter. Try that with a pint sized electric car up a long
hill.


Harry had a F-150 not too long ago and often reported in this NG what a
great truck it was.

That's before he sharpened his political correctness.

Now a US made truck is crap because he owns a Japanese model.

I haven't owned an F150 for nearly 10 years. It was a good truck. The
Toyota truck that replaced it was better. I doubt I ever stated the
US-made truck was "crap." I have heard those sorts of allegations,
however, from SW Tom and I believe from you.

I think I only called one US truck I have owned as "crap" or a similar word
and it really wasn't the truck .... it was the engine. The '05 F-350 with
the Ford/Navstar 6.0 L diesel was failure prone. I was left stranded 3
times with it within the first 11k miles. "That" was crap.

Boy, time flies when you're having fun, huh? Seems like only yesterday you
were full of compliments for Ford regarding your F-150.

As I said, it was a good truck. But the Toyota was a better truck.
That's why I traded in the Ford for the Tundra.

Mine is very nice - except for not being able to tow.

Speaking of F-150s...saw an ad in the local paper saying 2008 base trucks
could be had for a few pennies under $14K CDN.
Man...I brought it up but the wife squashed that right away. She's rather
pay twice as much for a Forester or RAV4.

My wife is "up" for new car, and I'm trying to convince her a Forester
is what she wants. It isn't working. :}

Show her the Consumer Reports ratings for small SUVs and talk her into test
driving one.
A bit underpowered and the speedo is hard to read while wearing
sunglasses...otherwise very pleasant to drive.

Does it have an automatic and can it be towed 4 down without modification?

"She's rather"? You really should proofread your posts before you
attack others for their typos.

Do you wear *any* pants in your family, Donnie?
