Ford uses a modular frame there are two fronts 2wd and 4wd 3 center regular super cab and super crew. 5 rear ends 5.5' 6.5' 8' 6.5 max payload and 5.5' Raptor. The trucks are made using the different frame modals so it’s not muck more to make the raptor and it make collision repair cheaper and easier.

The F150 has a bigger bed in height and width. And compared to the global ranger longer in comparable cab styles. The differences in length and with aren’t significant on these trucks. There is a greater difference in width between the F150 and the raptor than between the T6 ranger and the F150.Is the less than 2 ft…

I ran fleet vehicle maintenance at an Air Force base where it got into the 100s in the summertime. The cars the SF (Security Forces aka Air Force MPs) used are the same type of impala and they would be ideling 24/7 out on the flight line or at the gates. Never had a problem with the heat. This is pure BS I live in AZ…

Damn ducking auto correct

I must of had the cabs reversed I stand corrected.

GM makes every crew cab half ton in Mexico and Ram makes all crew cabs and HD trucks there as well. Ford makes their Turks in Dearborn, Kansas City (f-150) and Louisville (f250-f550). Nissan and Honda are also in the US making pickup trucks.

As a former GM owner who had an 05 suburban eat 3 fuel pumps between 45k and 90k miles I try my best to avoid waiting until after the fuel light turns on to fill up.

I like how much it varies, I drive an f150 and it comes on at 50 miles till empty but hit some strap grades and head winds and that number drops faster than the odometer goes up. One time driving across Wyoming I hita strong head wind and burned through so much fuel I barley made it to a gas station. I had this happen…

I have a funny story about that, my younger brother is a West Point grad and his roommate there was a blonde kid from Slovenia who was here legally . I had to take him to some summer training at Ft Haichuca on the AZ Mexican boarder. We got stopped by USBP who asked for our IDs and if we where citizens. The guy just…

My little brother flew to New Zealand standby once (dad’s a pilot). On his return he had to change planes in Sydney and didn't have a confirmed ticket or visa and was detained.

At my Highschool a Canadian family, a U.K. Family and a Russian family got deported, and this was in Arizona.

I do the same thing Jake and since I'm more familiar with fords system I try to rent those but have had no problem s with uconect in the ram I rented.

Then through in the fact that their trucks use a different trim system XL ,xlt ,lariat ,king ranch ,platinum, limited and raptor with the xl, xlt and lariats avlible with the sport package that deletes the chrome and adds black seats I’ve always taken sport to be a look and not indicative of performance i.e. Looks…

Wouldn’t the tractor and trailer unit need to have V2V installed otherwise the tesla would have assumed it was going to clear the Tractor?

Another thing to consider is how many people still do not wear seatbelt. according to the CDC over half the people killed in automobile accidents are not wearing their seat belts. If your too lazy to spend the time to put the seatbelt on then your too lazy to drive. I not saying to go back to automatic seatbelts but…

Meanwhile everyone who has been in the military and deployed for 18 months and returns with a few thousand of their coworkers in several 747s with matching luggage this doesn’t seam as bad

Ford Tried with the Lincoln backwood and Mark Lt then found out that nobody bought them. Then in 2009 they decided to put the ford badges on the Lincoln pickup and sold a ton of them while Mexico still got the mark lt. I think that the top their pickups are just as nice on the inside as the 5 series /a6 /E class. the…

F150 and super duty now have them optional on king ranch and standard on platinum.

I agree on GMs durability is questionable I had a suburban that before 100k miles had leather seats crack , gauge cluster fail 3 fuel pumps fail the front diff fail 3 times transfer case fail transfer case shift encoder motor fail, random trim prices fall off. Led third brake light failed. The radio buttons had the…

Having driven 6 speeds that are up and to the left and 5speeds down and to the right I like. That the 6speeds you have to push down to shift into reverse. With the 5 speeds if you miss a shift into 4th or forget your in a 5 and not a 6 granted I've never done that I can just see that as happening if you loan the car…
