Tried a F-250, 5.7 liter Ford pickup - towed the boat fine, but for
some reason, I'm not really happy with Fords at the moment.

Tried a 2500 Silverado Diesel - not happy with it - wasn't
comfortable, didn't like the seat belt set up and I didn't like the
interior design. Towed ok.

Tried a Dodge Ram 2500 Quad cab - 5.7 Hemi sucks.

Tried a GMC 2500 Sierra - eh - fancy Silverado and I had the same
complaints.

Tried a Toyota Tundra just for yucks.

You will not believe what I ended up buying pending the resolution of
the F-150 issue.



I *hope* it was an F-250, F-350, or a Chevy.

Seriously, if you ever get into the 1/2 ton market again, look at one.

Very interesting set up with the 5.7 V8 and tow package. The surprise
of the morning was the fuel milage.

I was, to put it mildly, amazed.

Well good for you - you just queered the deal.

Look at the bright side.
If the Tundra turns out to be a lemon, you have enough ammunition to bury
half the posters here! ;-)
