Yet another proof of why not a soul has gone broke in the states through overestimating hideous taste.

The 4x4's look tuff, but the other ones don't do it for me, fuel economy is up to sh** but if you can afford one, then you can proberly afford the fuel.
Thats the yanks for ya, build em big, how would you be driving that in suburbs in Oz, you'd be wipping out all the parked cars on the edge of the road. |

Fine for towing the large boat, horse float or motorhome....or if you're a flambouant rich Yank.
Apart from the Ford and F series badge there's nothing there that I can see that would have me running out to buy one....even if I could afford it.

The price of oil has absolutely nothing to do with the demand in the USA.
I would love to see people actually loading stuff onto these things. 300Hp, I would imagine these things are pretty dam slow? |
