I’m sorry that I’m a class traitor. I come from a very upper middle class (my parents are in the top 2 % of income earners but not capital gains earners) background and have a masters in business administration (MBA) and instead of working for a bank and raping the lowerclasses with high interest loans I am in a more…

I don’t know we’re you live but I live out west and I use my raptor off pavement. And I need the approach angle. De the after pictures below after a trip through the desert.  I need better approach angles which is why I ditched Chevy. Plus 4x4 is better than AWD.

You don’t need to drive that fast on The roads. If you need the speed of a sports car over a truck then you are putting other people’s lives at risk. I use the Raptor’s capabilities to go to remote areas quickly and do my hobbies at significant time savings. If you are saving time with a sports car you are putting…

Never been to a mud pit I use the raptor for my hobbies and my f150 platinum as a comfortable commuter car. While I might not need the platinum it is one of the lower cost of ownership options that works for me I do need the raptor and regularly use it’s features. 

As a well endowed permiscus gay man I know that I am extremely well endowed but my trucks aren’t lifted so they are not brodozers. 

Full size vans don’t have 4x4

Krabi lots of Toyota’s and Ford’s I was looking at vehicles in private ownership yes those older d-maxes plural are everywhere as the shuttle cab things in Chaing Mia. I rented a Navara and a new Colorado back to back in Chile more hostile climate than thialand and the Nissan was way more confidence inspiring and…

I know it’s rare there as it’s only offered in left hand drive larger truck with large engines and the fuel economy to match 

It’s what I drive. Which is what the purpose of the article was lol

Because the SUVs cost more $$$ than the equivalent truck. I switched from SUVs to pickups when I bought my Raptor. My hobbies required A full size suv with the 3rd row removed or a 5.5 foot bed in a pick up. I went from a suburban z71 to the raptor to increase my off road capabilities. In the present it would cost me…

Chile is where it’s at. Almost no rules. I saw Lara’s parked in a neighbor hood with a new f150, the cops drive mopar v8s charger Durango and Rams out in Patagonia. You see American trucks and SUVs and muscle cars next to strange euro hatchbacks and Chinese and Korean and Japanese cars and trucks. They litteraly have…

My 2013 F150 was $29k with 76k on the clock. I found this 2014similar to what my brother got a year ago except in black and with the ecoboos for £26k which is $33k he paid $35 a year ago and his truck as less miles. So it would appear that the costs are close while it appears the depreciation is worse as the new F150s…

I think that is the new bronco. We know it will be based on a ranger platform and most likely 4 door to sell in any respectable numbers. This looks like an Ford Everest with a diffrent front clip. So it will be rugged and off road capable and would appear to be spotted between the wrangler unlimited and the 4Runner in…

I rented in the last year several diffrent Thai built trucks and my least favorite was the Chevy Colorado (called the Dmax where I rented it) I loved the Toyota Fortuner (Thai market Hylux based SUV) and the Nissan NP300d (Navara) I had rented way better than the Chevy. My brother rented a Thai built ranger this…

I think that is why some people have switched to other energy sources. However I think a cost that the studies might have overlooked is the cost of the land solar and wind turbines sit on. To generate the same amount of electricity as a coal or cng plant there needs to be a lot more space dedicated as well as battery…

Try 6 kids and a house that didn’t allow game boys discmans or iPods in the car driving from Phoenix to Vancouver ever Summer and to Utah and Montana a few times in the winter. Lots of poking and fighting. 

Because when growing up you have 5 brothers and sister 6 kids total and parents who love camping skiing and other outdoor hobbies there was only one answer, Chevy  Suburban. Ours were the 9 passenger model so we could fit grandpa in the truck for ski trips. Even today the 90s era Suburban cannot be beaten in interior…

And I help subuarus that are stuck out of the snow.4x4 for the win  

The problem is that between the safety equipment and aerodynamic requirements for fuel efficiency small and even midsize cars have alinented many taller drivers due to lower and sloping rooflines. It’s not like cars from 30 years ago that everyone could fit in. My parents in their fleet of cars have a 93 ford toruas…

Nooo. Some of us need ground clearance and approach angles. There is no point in a truck that has the same bumper height as a corvette, mustang, Miata or Ferrari. In the old days all cars had similar height bumpers but the sports cars have gotten lower and lower. People don’t need a sports car but a lot of people need…
