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.

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?
