 Worst Puchase Ever 2004 Ford F150

Strange, I bought one, a super cab mind you, for my foreman since he was doing a LOT of miles in his dually just driving around, and not 'working' it.

He thinks it's the greatest truck he's ever driven.

Personal taste may have more to do with it than anything else.

Best of luck.

 Worst Puchase Ever 2004 Ford F150

I was just reading some 'typical buyer profile' info. from one of those market research companies.

It seems not all 1/2 ton buyers are stupid suburbanite posers after all. In fact it seems that farmers & working men all over North America were right all along, a pickup is your best buy.

Dollar for dollar a 1/2 ton pick-me-up truck is a far value for less money than a mini-van (read "Tragic Wagon"Wink yeah right and has a FAR higher resale value.

I was kidding a neighbour of mine who just bought a GM-by-the-C pickup about his suburban-cruiser. He claims it has all the same equipment (toys) and 3 times the workability as the Minivan his wife wanted, but was $2,500 less money. The fact that it was RWD instead of FWD just clinched the deal for him.

Best of luck.

 Worst Puchase Ever 2004 Ford F150

The crash test dummies seem to like them, but I've never found anybody else who could sit in truck for more than a couple hours at most without some form of discomfort.

The only seats I have found that I can sit in for more than a few hours without any problem are those in my Bimmer, but with a V12 under the hood a cross-country journey is only a few hours..... Laughing out loud.

Best of luck.
