We all have our own personal needs and desires; desires win out a lot of the time. The Ford Super Crew has the best back seat space, hands down, Dodge has the Mega cab, but it is a Dodge. I have 2 small children and the space in the back is makes for easy loading. When we sell the cottage, we plan on buying a travel trailer; that is why I have a truck and not a mini van. I am still creating needs for having a truck. I had a Dodge Dakota before but found it too small if an extra adult was added in. The Ford Screw is the best because of space, construction, safety features and so on.
It is easy to criticize others choice in vehicles because there are lots of dumb people out there, but the average guy/girl does not need a truck. Fuel prices would be double if we all drove trucks.

I agree, I use to have a xterra then I had to my buddy car on a trailer with it and I can tell u an xterra is not meant to do that.....lol so I upgrade to the f150 it just towed again 2weeks ago on a flatebed and it did it without anysigns of it towing anything at all.... I for one attends a lot of race events so driving to a event in a unlimited car class is not only silly but flat out dumb. So many break downs on the track its best to be towed there rather then drive a race car to the track then race it and then break down n be stranded . So I did not get it just to have it. Cause honestly I much have a BMW M 135i for daily driver then a f150. But the truck does exactly wat I needed to do and its not a bad truck at all. I dont plan to lift it or anything crazy just want it to tow my car from point a to point b n the 5.4 on my 10 screw does the job without hesitation.

sorry to see you got rid of your truck. but you did get a nice vehicle in return. it isn't a truck, but if fuel economy is what you are seeking, you made a great choice. plus Honda holds their resale value really well. but PLEASE do not put a fart can on it!!!
