The F-250 is a pick-up truck rumpswab haw can you compare it to an SUV? Some people actually have uses for pickup trucks. I also prefer it's looks over Chevy's.


SUV for me is a nessecary evil, I need 4WD and I have 3 kids and all their stuff to move around. I haven't been able to convince my wife to let me convert it to run on vegtable oil......yet.

SUVs are definitely sweet but I'm just saying some of them are unnecessarily large. I'm reminded of the Canyonero Simpson's episode...
But it don't take much to get me by

Update on this topic:

With gas prices soaring, almost two-thirds of those surveyed for an AP-AOL poll expect fuel costs will cause them financial hardship in coming months. That was sharply higher than in April, when about half felt that way.

Crude oil prices reached a record high of more than $66 a barrel Friday. That's almost 50 percent higher than a year ago.

The average price of a gallon of regular gasoline was more than $2.40 per gallon at week's end, compared with $1.86 a year ago and about $2.21 in April, according to the auto club AAA.

I think it's because we are approaching peak world oil production shortly.

$2.25 a gallon, my paycheck goes down the drain just paying for gas.
