Drove a BIG F150 last night... hated it. I mean, it has everything I

need but I just don't like driving that huge monstrosity... Think I

would get over it soon enough?

I went from a Toyota 4Runner to a 4WD Silverado 2500HD. Pretty big
jump. Get used to it pretty

quickly - or hit a lot of stuff.

I have an F-150 SuperCrew and I love it. Nobody pulls out in front
of you when you are

driving down the road. Mine has a 156 ince wheel base and I can do
a 3 point turn in my two

car driveway. Whenever I go somewhere I do stratigic parking, park
out where nobody is.

I've also noticed how courteous drivers have become since I got the
Silverado. It's a remarkable

transformation. I had no idea my purchase of a big pickup would
improve the manners of such a great

many people!

Funny... I've notice that people react to the Corvette in different
ways. One of the most aggressive reactions is from guys in pickups!
They want to race me for some reason. Crazy. Young guys in Mustangs
tend to leave me alone :-)
(I like Mustangs, BTW)

Yeah, and they still have the best "retro remake" in my opinion...

The F-150 Lightening was a Porsche killer.

The newer Mustangs, at least the "GT" models, are great for short people
with well-padded butts. They ride very hard. The "regular" non-GT
Mustangs are very popular down here in Southern Maryland with high
school girls and recent grads. Yellow is a favorite color of the girly
girl set. Nice looking cars, though.
