I don't feel like a tool because knowing I saved 7-8 grand over the price of a truck - the truck I was looking at was 14k, same miles, 1 year newer, supercab, cloth seats... compare that to 7k, leather heated seats and 1 year older... nope, don't feel like a tool at all.Originally posted by 95.0mark View PostI honeslty would feel like a tool driving around, ALONE, in my 8-9 passenger bus of an suv. I just see NO reason unless I had over 5 kids and took them in it daily.
I mean, what a pain in the ass to park or get into tight places in the city or whatever. not to mention paying for all that gas when you could put that money in the bank?
oh well....
It's not a pain in the ass at all to park if you can turn a steering wheel. I work downtown and it's my daily driver. As for the gas mileage, I need something that can tow well, nothing that does that gets decent mileage.
It must be a real pain to slide off the road and not be able to get out in your econo shitbox. It would also be a pain in the forehead were you to crash into anything larger than a traffic cone... peace of mind you can't put into the bank...

You know you're going to feel like a tool if you end up in the ditch now and can't drive out, right?

The logic you used in buying your suv baffles me fosters, but that is all you man.Originally posted by Fosters View PostI don't feel like a tool because knowing I saved 7-8 grand over the price of a truck - the truck I was looking at was 14k, same miles, 1 year newer, supercab, cloth seats... compare that to 7k, leather heated seats and 1 year older... nope, don't feel like a tool at all.

and please do not tell me that pig can get around as easy as a small car, please!!!!
case in point. the spot I parked in near the dome for the game would not have been possible for your pig to get in to.
Most of the time, people go into the ditch because they are driving to fast, alot of them have a false sense of security in there massive suv.

But some of us are more likely to tow a boat or haul a ton or two of cement, then we are to do any real off roading (which is why I have a real truck).Originally posted by 95.0mark View PostWith all his weight and power he would win that, but that is obvious. off road is a different type of comp. his big bad suv would get owned.Originally posted by retics4meIm not very smart but I can lift heavy things

I have my doubts as to how much and how often fosters is towning. and doubtful he hauls a lot or he would have bought a pick up.Originally posted by 00Formula View PostBut some of us are more likely to tow a boat or haul a ton or two of cement, then we are to do any real off roading (which is why I have a real truck).
fosters, what kind of boat do you have?
