No, won't bother. Don't care.
I will not buy one anyway.
First off, it is NEW. I will never buy another NEW vehicle, especially a truck. It would cost about 6 times what my first house cost, and half again as much as my second house! (yes, that was a long time ago, but still...)
Second, it has been about 20 years since I have owned a Ford. I don't think I will be going back anytime soon.
Third, I refuse to get involved in that numbers game. I simply do not need a truck that is capable of that much power. My '99 Dodge 24 valve Cummins has power sufficient to my needs and then some. More power means it is easier to break something. No, thanks, I do not need that!
But yet you cared enough to respond to this thread... :R
Yes, I did.
I cared enough to want to express my opinion of new vehicle prices.
I cared enough to express my opinion of Fords.
I cared enough to express my opinion of the numbers game (HP/Torque race) that the manufacturers seem so fond of.
I neglected to express my opinion of the "class warfare" that the manufacturers love. "BEST In Class!" Exactly what does that mean? What "class"? Is that "class" so narrowly defined that only THAT truck will fit?
