Re: Help me settle an arguement...

Nice looking 94 blazer there - I had one before I got the Yukon. Bought a John Deere 2010 dozer (same size as 350) and towed it home on a trailer behind that Blazer. Never hooked that truck to something it wouldn't pull. Most Fords I ahve driven wouldn't pull a sick ***** off a **** pot.

Compared to Toyota, they all suck. Reliability, resale value, tough as nails enginerering et al. They may not be roomy as a nice big Dodge Ram Club Cab, but they don't depreciate like American vehicles for a good reason ;)

Yea SW, but it's nice to keep our brothers and sisters working building American cars and trucks, by buying American made cars and trucks.<br /><br />No thanks, I will stick with my Fords and Chevys.

Re: Help me settle an arguement...

I have a 95 Ford F150, and it has served me well, with no problems. I have had other Fords with no or minimal problems. Pretty much, any mainstream vehicle is decent nowadays....<br /><br />Don't know about other regions, but there has to be a reason why almost all fleet vehicles up here are Fords.<br /><br />Somehow I doubt one burned up Ford is indicative of an entire product line (except for Pintos and Crown Vics). I have seen plenty of burned up rigs, from all the manufacturers.

U-Haul is switching to an exclusive deal with GM right now. Phasing out the Fords.<br /><br />Neither "suck", its just a matter of personal preference.<br /><br />I do like the Japan and Euro models as well, most of which are built in North America now anyway.<br /><br />(Like JB's new Benz) ;)
