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!

I have not noticed extra care. They still cut over in front when merging,
and making the last moment to get the offramp when I am towing. The extra
safety space is too attractive I guess. Especially ****es me off when the
cut in at the last moment and then hit the brakes. I think I need a video
camera on the dash and use that to show their stupidness when I sue them
after running over them.
