Guess I missed that statement???

There was a post that said 1/2 t pickups were only good for suburbanites and housewives. Gone now though.

Someone recanted???? Wussies.....

I think you missed my point. No worries here. As Aaron said, it makes for clean, cheap used trucks.

Your point about snow only happening twice a year or your point that a receiver rack on a suv is just as good as a truck bed with a cover for hauling deer. LAffin

You points made no sense and are quite frankly wrong. Snow happens a lot more than twice a year and a receiver rack is a sorry way to carry something you plan to eat. People have thier reasons for the various bed covers. My brother has one that can be slid back so the bed is open in just a couple of minutes. I think it seems to work pretty good for him. coobie has his reasons for the covers on his trucks. Why you can't understand that is not my problem. Try to keep up.

Whoaaaaa big fella......

Maybe you can tell everyone what my points were??? When you can do that then you can judge whether they are frankly wrong or not.

You can cover your whole truck if you like. I'm very happy you cover your truck and that everyone else covers theirs. Not sure why you imply that I think it's a problem.

I'm afraid it's you that needs to keep up Sir.

Yeah, my reply is gone with it... My bad. Ridiculous statement, either way.

Honorable thing for you to do. Very manlike. Thank you.

When I bought my last 2 F250's, they were actually cheaper than a F150 configured the same. I don't put a lot of miles on my truck so I was happy to get more truck for less money and don't care so much about mpg.

There is a lot of argument that newer F150's are better than F250's of just a few years ago. Considering everything that goes into a successful towing trip I don't know how much I believe that...unless you go back 20 years or more. Superduty's have been around since 1999 and they are a very stable towing platform. Raw power is far from the only thing that means safety in towing.

I should get an F350 and then say that F250's are only for women and suburbanites!

Good one!!!!

Next truck I really want to step up to a F450. There's definite change in that.

250 versus 350 isn't so much.

The original owner of my 250 put 350 springs on it. All it lacks is a badge change and it would be a 350.

I already have repeated you points and the posts are there for anyone to read. BTW, I dont' have a cover on my truck so you must be once again mixed up. Nice try though. Do better next time. LAffin

Lets see a pic of your heavily used truck bed? Sounds like it must be really impressive.

Be careful what you wish for... My F450 rides likes a freight train with square wheels. So dang rough. Between the 300 or so rear leaf springs (slight exaggeration), and the load range G tires @ 110 psi (not an exaggeration).... Your kidneys feel every bump on the road.

On the positive side, the 8000lbs payload is handy, and it's extremely stable for towing.

Always a trade off......
