Probably the R1T, with EV Hummer and Lightning rounding out the list. They aren’t good as trucks (ability to haul two round hay bales is my criteria) and exist in the weird space of virtue signaling and conspicuous status symbol.  They seem to all have been bought to flip on auction sites, too. I’m having a bit of a…

Changing the radio stations is more dangerous than driving home from the bar. 

They didn’t even badge engineer a crosshair fascia, but dropped it for // as their logo.  

That’s been my conclusion this summer with $8 15 racks of Beast Light. I blinded it vs. Miller Lite and liked it better. 

I’m waiting for them to give Biden credit now that gas prices have dropped $0.50 in the past few weeks. 

She has her fortune because of a pyramid scheme. Of course she wants more dumb Americans. 

I sought out my F150 in green/tan two tone specifically. It’s nostalgia. In the future will blacked out crew cabs be the same?

Yellowstone comes to mind, but not for the trucks themselves. Ranchers out west do seem to drive HD Rams. But the exhaust notes all sound like burbling V8s when they have Cummins badges on the truck. The V8 sound effect is ubiquitous in TV and movies. That and tires screeching on gravel roads. 

JJ’s admits to this trick with neon “free smells” signs. An old gf read it in a different context and didn’t get it. Free smells like what? No, smells offered free of charge. 

Counterpoint, the Chevys fit perfectly because for ‘14-’15 they were a brilliant update of the C/K square bodies of old. The gold pinstripe and Scottsdale badge are icing on the truck cake. The F150s, a little less and the roll bar makes the already stubby bed useless.

Sir, do you know why I pulled you over? Your All Things Considered theme is just too darn loud. 

They should, cops aren’t going to not sniff around your car just because you’re a white kid. And if you don’t want to get pulled over for loud music, don’t play it so loud it can be heard outside the car. Not saying the cops still won’t pull you over if they want to. 

My town was so small we had to drive to shop at a big store. There were other options.

I’d guess most of them

I’ve never spent a nickel there. I do use their machines to return empties and take the cash to spend elsewhere.

No surprise, they have the government subsidize the poverty wages they pay.

All of the SUV Coupes have the Eagle proportions, too, and they’re the most loathed car designs made. 

The most recent bad experience was my fault. I was shopping for a used truck so I could sell my paid off Silverado and use that $ for an engagement ring. Narrowed my search to a 11-14 F150 w/ the 5.o. Test drove a green Lariat and loved it. It was so much nicer inside than I ever thought I’d buy. And green; I now knew…

I had a salesman tell me that Canadian wholesale vehicles couldn’t be CPO, which I was skeptical of since he was talking me out of a truck I was cross shopping. Still, I have a bias against them when I see it on carfax and especially when I see an F150 XTR on the road. Lord knows what oilfield they’ve bounced around…

It’s tough to give complete loyalty to an industry that has closed so many factories, hurting so many towns across the country, and who now seems to be happy restricting supply to boost profits.
