Ford F-150
Yea I was bustin on Scott - 18"...
I remember that Ranger Charles, didn't it almost die at Center Hill when we were there??? Warren "Charles Summers" wrote in message ... I think he was making a joke out of the 18 inches that you put in your first message. But... even pulling my 17' Nitro with my 2001 F-150 v6, I can hardly tell it's there. Especially compared to that little Ranger I used to use. "Scott Brown" wrote in message ... Just bareley know that it is back there. When I first bought the boat I had a terrible problem with leaving the plug in it, while I was at the house. And I have taken many a tons of rain water towards the lake with me. But have learned after buying more gas then needed and more wear and tear then I needed, to pull lite. "go-bassn" wrote in message ...

It does just fine, I live in the mountains of North Carolina and Fish South Carolina most of the time, so up and down the mountain usually whenever I go out, it is a great truck.

I will be towing a 1997 20 javelin w/ a 200 johnson. |
Ford F-150
Well let's see...
I was runnin' low on gas, so I took it down to the station that was about 3 or 4 miles from the er resort. I gassed her up, paid the guy and tried to get back to Hurricane, but it wouldn't start. Dead starter... I called Vern's drunk ass and he and I attempted to push it away from the pumps. In doing so, the drivers door caught on a post almost ripping it off the hinges. I drove Vern back to his mansion on the hill and headed back to Hurricane. I told Sean and Jerry my problem since I was driving Verns truck, and I had to pick up Vern at 5:00 the next morning. They decided that they would follow me back over to Verns and we'd just drop off the truck and he could get there if he was sober enough the next morning. If I remember correctly... we're you there when we took his truck back? If not... you'll love the rest of the story. Anyway, the next night, Jerry drove me into town to pick up a new starter. The door wasn't as bad as I thought, but did have it repaired after returning home. I traded that thing in about three months ago for the F-150 so I could get myself and two of my kids in it every morning on their way to school. That was a good ole truck, and was still running strong when I traded it. Only problem was, it didn't like pulling the boat in its' old age. Good thing I only live about 5 miles from the ramp!

At one time I owned 6 Ford F-150's,they pulled landscape trailers and
equipment fine for the first 75-80,000 miles,then went belly up and I had a mechanic on staff for maintenance.I replaced them with GMC trucks with the Vortec and man what a difference. All my Fords were '96 models but I hear the newer ones are a lot better.I sure like the way they look. "go-bassn" wrote in message ...

Yeah, you could say that. I offered to get an "X" plan for ppl in here. The "X" plan is only 4% different than the employees "A" plan, so it's still quite a savings.

Ford F-150
I dunno Warren, I own three Chevy trucks for my business. They are good
trucks, but the main reason I went with Chevy trucks had nothing to do with quality or features. I have owned an F-250 and an F-150 in the past. They were great trucks too. I currently still have a 1965 F-250 as a yard truck. It sits for long periods, and always starts up when we need to move equipmebt around in the yard. The main reason I went with Chevy was because of front end help on sales. I walked in and said, "I need a truck for my business." The first one I had a good deal on and drove it off the lot before they even had the paperwork ready. The next two trucks were the same way. Although my family owns a lot of GM stock, and my father in law is a retired GM principal exec, I would buy a Ford ina minute if I had gotten the same quality no nonsense service and a good price on the truck. It was the sales people and the commercial sales manager that made the difference for me. -- Spinner Baits Tips & Tricks Contest featuring Secret Weapon Lures in December ** Public Fishing and Boating Forums ** www.YumaBassMan.com "go-bassn" wrote in message ...

Ford F-150
I sell basically all the real contenders, Ford, GMC, Chevy, Dodge, and the
Nissan Titan. In fact I get to drive all of them all the time. Tonight I drove home a 04 F-150 4x4. I like them all, and each has their own special characteristics. Take the F-150. Great truck! Nice accelleration, good ground clearance, very tight steering, nice layout. It's flaws in my opinion, the suspension is just a little too stiff for me as well are the seats. I wouldn't want to take a long trip in one, yet that stiffness is exactly what some people want. The back seat is also a little too upright making it uncomfortable. The Dodge Ram, without a doubt, the fastest in all the groups (1/2, 3/4, 1 ton) regardless of what the 0-60 specs tell you. Again, nice interior layout and roomy. Its flaws to me are the seats are too soft and suspension super stiff. Yet, a lot of people love their Dodge just for those reasons. GMC/Chey, I really, really like them because they have a very nice/smooth power band and the seats are comfortable to me. The back seat is also roomier and more comfortable than the Ford and Dodge. Its flaw is its steering is a little loose in comparison to the others. But my overall favorite would be the Nissan Titan. Call it a perfect blend, and a heck of a lot more smoother and quieter. It has all the best of Ford, GM and Dodge, and it looks good too! My only complaint is that I don't get as many in stock as I wish I could have. When I get them in they hit the ground and they are all gone in a couple days and I'm not at a Nissan Dealership. -- Craig Baugher Credit/Finance/Sales Specialist (734) 218-3569 Direct Line Bad Credit?
