I love trucks but I prefer my cars all to be foreign (Mitsubishi, Honda, Nissan, Toyota). I have terrible luck with American cars and foreign ones are so easy to work on.

That being said, the truck is beautiful and it looks like there is someone in the front who enjoys it as well!

Never seen the use for pickups, must be an american thing..

What do you guys need to transport!?

In the southern US, it's a law that the wife drives a car and the husband drives a pick-up truck.

My last truck I used to load firewood for the winter...bring my riding lawnmower to the shop...help friends move...bring home furniture...etc.

As a guitarist I don't know one survives without a truck for haulin gear
i am a carpenter- so tools
I refinish tubs witch is basically a rolling paint rig for cars - so more tools
Don't tell my wife but you are high enough to see the skirts, and staffy you would love the drive through Hollywood
mine is a 04 F-150 can seat 6 as well
i could go on and on
but on the down side , "Friends" are always wanting help moving

side note--Praetorian -did you get a job?

I will post a picture when my wife wakes up and tells me where they are in the computer

NIce truck Ben! I am also looking at getting an F-150

edit: due to my poor typing skills

Nice Ben .

One of my neighbours has one as well. Only thing here is that it's a bit too big for a lot of the really narrow streets in town* but on the main road it's great .

*Lots of our town's narrow streets date back hundreds of years when the only traffic was the odd donkey. Even today a lot of the traffic is still only the odd donkey .

Not sure what you mean. I still work at the same place I have for the past 12 years!

Nice ride Ben!!!

I always had a hankering for an F Series, although I'd want a classic F 100 ~ dropped, chopped and channelled!!!

thats a beast mate! Bet the gas mileage is forgettable though!

Posted by: Praetorian May 9 2010, 10:35 PM

I get around 14 miles per gallon. Gas is about $2.98 a gallon right now.
