    My wife was in her F150 4x4
    She got rear ended by a BMW
    Got out and the lady was asking If she was hurt or if her truck was damaged

    my wife said I'm fine , she walked to the rear of her truck to see her bumper hitch buried in the BMW
    She said my truck is fine but yer BMW is messed up
    My wife said thank you oh

    My wife has a 04 F150 Super CAb Fx4 with a 5.4 engine. She has like 108,000 on it.
    She just had two 265 70 17 Nitto Terra grabber tires on it. She has a good trailer hitch so she can pull her jet ski with it .
    She will not give up her truck unless she gits another one.
    Would have no way to go to work.
    We haven't owned a car since I met her over 20 yrs ago.

    This is a truck family
    Texas is Truck Country......:rant:

    Glad your wife is okay, CB. I have a '84 F-150 5 liter V8. Wouldn't trade it for anything. Tough thru and thru. Mac the Wife drives it to work everyday.

    My wife don't like cars.
    She drove a Toyota 4x4 I had and I gave it to her after we got married and she wrecked her car.
    The toyota got stolen.
    She drove my Dads Chevy silverado for years that I went and go when he died.

    Took the OL out years ago. Took days.
    Went to a Chevy dealer and let her drive Chevy's, Took her to a dodge dealer and let her drive dodges.
    Then took her to a Ford dealer and let her drive Fords. I saved the best one till last.
    She drove the Ford Home. Said she can see better out of it. Don't have the blind spots. It rides better and fits her better.

    She don't want Nothin but a Ford. And if its paid for she likes it better.
    If we can git out situation straight I might take her in a few years and git her another new one.
    The new fords rides so nice and the newer tranny's lets it get better fuel milage.

    My wifes FX4 is a lot like that. Shifter in the floor seating and all.

    Buddy has a 2010 crew cab sun roof 4x4 Red with a 5.4
    He's got a buddy that has the econo boost and said the econo boost has a lot more power.
    He's trying to sell his 2010 model.

    I test rode a F-150 Eco- boost a month ago. Lots of power. Was doing about 25 coming out of the town of Sandy and punched it. Sheet, broke the tires loose, dry pavement to. Not bad for a V- six. :D

    Comon Man............

    Its a 6 with 400 hp

    It has to be the best riding truck on the market.

    Got a dude we do work for that got a letter from a dealership 30 miles from here.
    They said they need his used ford truck to come and see them.
    He drove down to the dealership and they offered him so much money for his used ford he couldn't say NO.
    He came home with a new Ford Truck.
    He says man what a great riding truck. I can't believe HOW much I like my NEW FORD truck.
    How could anybody build a truck this nice. And the fuel milage is great too.
