xstop not true of my trucks 1970 thru 1995..

have owned and put to the test a 70 ..88 90..93..95..

THE 88 was just sold w/188,00 and now works as a pressure washer truck

mailman got the 90' ...235,00 miles...he drove it daily



still drive the 93 and the 95 ........and they go where I ask them to go

FORD.......TRUCK.........BECAUSE THEY WORK


now if your reference is about new Ford trucks ..........

I ain't got a clue....haven't had a truck or car payment in 23 years.

I was referring to more recent years where they build them as big as dump trucks and charge 5x the price. Every dip shit around just has to have one. Can't park the fucking thing and never haul anything in it (might scratch the bed).

On the course!

We have a dealer in town who sells only trucks. How can anyone pay $80,000 for one of these?

I can remember when pickup trucks were the throw away of the institution. They were cheap, because they didn't have to meet hiway standards. No I-beam in the sides, so they crumpled like an aluminum can in an accident. Only farmers and construction workers had pick ups.

New Ford trucks are great, my dad has a F150 about 5 years old, never had one issue, he drove his 1977 Ford truck for 277,000 miles, sold it in 1988 bought a Chevrolet and bought another ford in the mid 90s and has ever since

YA, great reminiscing about all the great cars we used to have, wish i still had my 70 chevelle ss or my 76 z28. We used to make great cars. Not anymore.
Meantime the fucktards that run GM and Ford want more bailouts. How much are you willing to donate to keep them going. Their management sucks and they are counting on more of your tax dollars. BArry gave them what ,30/40 billion? And cash for clunkers, great program. Just one more bailout..............................and they'll be fine:facepalm:

The GM bailout saved a ton of US jobs and GM paid back the loan ahead of schedule.

GM and the loaned money. It's not that tricky?

You should start stiffing the government. Apparently, you can take their money and never pay it back. Go on Welfare where the world is your oyster.

How gullible are you guys? Good grief.

Pretty sure it was never all paid back.
And how much over the over 3 billion that Cash for Clunkers cost taxpayers did we get back?
