Yes but when an Air Force fighter wing had 3,200 people and 60 fighter aircraft and all the support for those members and their family. Granted a ship is going to have different maintenance needs than a base, they don’t have to worry about snow removal repairing roads housing etc.

Looking at the map Utah has an 80 mph speed limit and Hawaii is the slowest with 60mph. Yet Hawaii (11)ranks just above Utah(12) on fatalities per capita. One could argue that the snow , mountain terrain and congestion around Salt Lake City are bigger factors than speed.

I put snow tries on my raptor which came in handy when I lived in Utah and found out my front 4x4 hub had not been repaired following an accident preventing the 4x4 from engaging. Ford uses a vacuum to engage the hubs, no seal no vacuums no 4x4. Still made it to and from Powder Mountain in a blizzard just could not…

I think with the 50 person complement he means just to get the vessel from point a to b and maybe do some basic stuff with sensors and weapons. On the Nimitz the ships company is 3200 sailors plus 2480 in the air wing. 5680 people on one ship. I can understand the air wing being so big but I cannot fathom needing 3200…

I tell a detailed story about how I financed my vehicle and the strange way I bought it and financed it. I tell you that they live in an area with a lot of raptors which if your in the market for used gives you more options. My parents took cash that I had, my old suburban (which they sold) and money I borrowed from…

I don’t think there is a business case for this May be a higher trim level of the escalade like the Range Rover Autobiography SV with the Z06 engine and some more premium leather/ wood.

Millions of people have a Camrys and accord some people just want a simple low key commuter car. One that’s not so wide it needs marker lights to be DOT compliment.

Less than the cost of my deductible at pick a part. Two hours worth of work.With some friends and drinks Also helped me make a decision to stay with Oxford “fleet queen” white on my next one.

The 5.4 gets better economy in 4x4 off road mode than the 6.2 gets on the highway. Additionally since I'm not compensating I don't have the urge to drag race 5.7 toyotas and Rams lol jk. The 5.4 l raptor won its class in Dakar so it's got that going for it.

This owner has and I know others have as well.Probably close to 50/50 just because it’s clean doesn’t mean it’s babbied or a mall crawler Beliw are pictures of my truck from a Sunday till Tuesday

He is probably trying to sell it before the 17s come out and the price drops. Looking on autotrader most 2014 raptors with 30,000+ miles are still going for MSRP. I knew of raptor owners who would buy a new one every year and sell their old one not paying a dime out of their own pocket. I'm to attached to mine after…

I got my raptor from someone who still had a loan out on the truck. Sometimes people finance their vehicle in strange ways. I had waited to long to pull a trigger on a 5.4l raptor and there where none left on the new car lot. Being very picky about color and motor I asked my parents to keep an eye out for a white 5.4l…

Because an $80k suburban is less luxurious than a $67k MDX the suburban sells close to the same number as the MDX never mind the Tahoe’s numbers

Or people could just do what my parents did. Not allow the kids to eat in the car. My mom would put all six of us in the suburban and road trip from Phoenix to Canada every summer with my dad flying in and nearing us every few days. And we would take a trip befor Christmas and for spring break to Utah Colorado or…

Doug the mark LT didn't die they just slapped a blue oval on it and called it the f150 platinum. They still sold them as Lincolns in Mexico until the 2015 redesign. Ford marketers found that people would pay more for a ford than a liconln pick up.

The 6.2 raptor doesn’t have any racing pedigree. The 5.4 and now the 3.5 do. The 6.2 in the raptor r was not the production engine, and that truck could not race is the stock class it was a trophy truck with a raptor skin. They used the same truck the next year in the ecoboost challenge. The 5.4 raptor actually won…

I completely agree, I got the Raptor because it was big enough to seat 4 adults comfortably had the off road ability and the cargo volume I needed. But 887lbs of payload is less than my brothers Jetta sportwagen tdi. And 6000 lbs towing is nothing. When people tell me they want a raptor I ask them if they are going to…

Ford did the Amorillo edition in the mid 2000s what is with these yellow Texas themed trucks

You do realize that those lawyers might be using the trucks full capability on the weekends and have done the math that’s it’s more economical to have a nice truck than a luxary car and a base model truck. Additionally them buying the platinum edition with extra chrome. Slows the manufacture to spread the development…

The main reason people went to crew cabs is SUVs cost significantly more for the most part. Here are similarly equipped f150s and xc90 they are rated at similar MPGs and the ford has ventilated seats the Volvo doesn't otherwise the equipment on these is nearly identical as is the fuel economy Now if one needed the tow…
