2011 F350 crew cab 6.7L Powerstroke diesel.


Too sweet a deal to pass up. Great incentives from Ford for the model-
year change -- clearing inventory. My 2000 F150 has 190,000 mi and is
starting to nickel and dime me. Too unreliable. I have to give it up
on the best vehicle I've ever owned. Sad, but I'll get over it. It
will become the Stanley dump-run/wood-cutting truck, living into a
ripe old age if the head gasket doesn't blow.


Just picked up a new Audi A8L. *An old man's car -- how appropriate.

*I
needed something that could move, give me luxory, and got good gas
mileage. *We got 29+ mpg on our trip from GA to MA.

The old bike rack wouldn't fit, so I took off the front wheel of my
fishing bike, wrapped it in a couple of old quilts, and put it in the
back seat of the A8L. *Fit quite nicely, with room to spare for other
things.

Is that F350 a duelly?

So what's your hitch capacity and tow weight for your Audi?

Uhhh, what would I be towing? No need to tow *anything*. If it can't
fit inside, I don't need it.
