No, I've never owned one, that was kinda the point of one of my posts, were I said I looked at one, didn't like it and didn't buy it. Thats good that you guys fit in them and enjoy them, I found it small, and I didn't care for them. 3100lbs..thats not very much, but thats good you had no problems. I aint saying they will fall apart in the first mile you drive them, and I aint saying their the worst product ever made, I'm just saying I don't like them and their not enough truck for me.

I get 24mpg @ a steady 60mph on my 4.2L V6.

Thats cool but I'm not sure what you would expect out of a compact truck though 3100lbs is a decent load. If its not your cup of tea thats alright. But Ive owned three of them and the only reason I got rid of one was to get a newer one.All were great trucks. Its kind of like opinions, sometimes you like and agree with em and sometimes you dont

Exactly, I've done the same thing with F150's(had 3 of them now) and lots of people have told me I am dumb for not buying a Superduty, like you said each to their own. Though my next one will probly be a Superduty...just waiting out this Navistar engine thing, see what happens with Ford building their own Diesel, my truck is new, I've got lots of time to wait.
