I'm going to need a new truck... swerved to miss Bambi Wednesday night. Slid, bounced off a concrete barrier twice. Truck is totalled.

Sorry to hear that. Hope you are alright. Drove a Ford F150 today with the V6 motor. Had plenty of power for what I need it for. Seem to be a nice truck.

I'm physically OK, financially over a barrel.

A good friend of mine has a 2012 F150 he bought new. Nice truck, horrible fuel mileage. He constantly says he should have bought a V8 truck instead. His was in for service for a week once, his loaner was identical to his truck - but had the 5 liter V8. He claims it got 2-3 MPG better than his V6.
