My V6 revs down too slow when i shift. when i go to my Jeep TJ, i pull my foot off the gas faster & get lurched forward.

The steering wheel is too far forward. i end up hunched over a little.

Can Ford use any less paint and have them still resemble a color? If you wink at one (hard not to, they look so good) there is a scratch!

I'd like this truck better if it had cornering lights.

Sorry guys but I think you forgot one of the worst things about these trucks. THE CUP HOLDER!!!! Its the ONLY thing about this truck that makes it a pain to drive. I fish alot which means alot of "on the road meals". Dodge has our butts kicked on this item. Come on Ford, give us somewhere to put our big gulp when we are out all day fishing.

Being 6'5" tall I have to complain about the windshield mounted rear view mirror. It completely blocks out anything the front/right area(As in a 4 way intersection)
I am going to have it removed and remounted to the top of the glass and hopefully this will help.
The only other bummer is the balance weights coming off of the aluminium wheels constantly.
Other than that these trucks are darn near perfect.

Andthensometoo,
Being the huge hockey fan that I am(See above)I always thought that the Red Army fans(Detroit Red Wings for the uninitiated) liked those foreign types of vehicles???
You guys love all those Euro and Russian players so I figured vehicles too??
Am I off on this? He He.
Just kidding.

Triton, where is it you are trying to put that thing? I used to joke about why I didn't buy a dodge was because they don't have a big cup holder in the fold-down armrest like Ford does. I almost live in my truck, and I can't live without my coffee in my giant Red Wings mug.

I even love my payment. I get paid to drive my truck (miles plus hours) and the tax break I get at the end of the year, is more than the yearly total of payments. Laughing and living in my truck, all week long!!!

B777, What could be more American than Hockey and Ford" (baseball and cheverlet are sooo boring!)

Somehow I don't think hockey is an American sport. I could be wrong.

You know that last goal, your solor pupies were in the crease, and the play should have been blown dead cuz our goalie had it covered for 3 seconds! But the best team won the cup this year! We'll get ya'll next year!

Andthensometoo:

You sound like a nice guy. Do me a favor though: lay off of baseball.
