You know Ray I have always been a Chevy girl but if I was buying a new truck I would buy the Ford F150 too. Extended cab, just have to have the room with kids still at home. But we have rented a few of them and they always seemed to be the one with more room for David and just a great truck. Am I in trouble now ??

If I ever got a new truck. I like the big dodge 4X4's with a Cummings diesel. So I could tow a house with it.
I just like the dodge's front ends look.
But I will stick with my durango until I loose the rust battle. I only drive the poor thing in the snow mainly. I do get it out just to run it in the summer tho. It isn't good for them to just sit.

Finally ready to buy the truck and I find out that Ford is only making the truck I wanted with a 5.5 foot bed. Wanted a 6.5 foot bed. For the rest of the year that is all they are making. And the truck and engine combo I wanted they don't even offer it. Back to square one.

Ray, have you done an "inventory search" on the Ford site? There may be a truck just like you want setting on a Dealers lot somewhere. I went through that when I was looking for a new Ford van.
