I will most certainly continue to be happy to keep pumping gas in my FX4. I wouldn't have it any other way! 
I doubt a 4 banger rice burner will be more enjoyable than a F-150 
, but then again you know what they say....
Opinions are like........
Everybody's got one!

Good luck with that sedan, better hope you dont have to pay for part replacements out of warranty down the road.
30 to 35 mpg while moving in OD in my 03 Supercrew will suit me just fine.

Well this is an ongoing debate and arguement all over the nation. And I have considered getting a little car for fuel mileage as well, but I just CAN'T do it. I did get an '03 GTP for 3 months, and I liked it, but it won't haul much!!! I use my truck weekly to haul stuff, firewood, scrap iron, engines, trannys, tires, tools, 4-wheeler, pull the car trailer. You know, I use it. Plus I feel much safer in my truck. Go ahead, Hit me in my truck with your little Jap fuel mileage getting rice burning death trap. We'll see who lives to tell the story of what happened!!! Which brings me to the next debate, The tree Huggers wanting all the SUVs off the road because they don't feel safe in their little Hybrid Honda!!! Big deal!! Isn't the Honda the SAFEST car on the road!! LOL I'll keep my truck. Thank You. And if I had my say, the wife would be driving a 4x4 Excursion instead of her Grand Prix GT. But she likes her car. So we take my truck anytime we all go somewhere.

My truck is paid for, it gets 17mpg highway so my only bill is the gas. It would cost me money to go to new car just to save gas.

Well if you need to compensate for a shortcoming through a vehicle, you need more than an F150....maybe a set of ***** you insecure ape!

You and everyone else seem to have the same come back....."hope you don't get hit" crap. How many cars have you hit? Do yo uget in your truck and think of how many cars you can hit? I never came close, or even thought about it in my truck. By the way, I did feel that my kids were safe in my truck, but they are just a safe in my car especially seeing that I am a very defensive driver and could see a moran like you in a SCREW coming from a 1/4 mile. Blah blah blah.......
