SD, you need to one of those resto mod ones that looks OG on the outside but has plush interior and every modern convenience.

Ford brought back the color/white/color paint scheme on some F150 and new Broncos.
i don’t think that is true

If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Pretty sure the F150 are a normal option. I think you’re correct on the broncos. 

Is there a better vehicle than Ford blue? It’s so great.

Brought home the new ride today. Guy who sold it to me was Pooka Williams brother - how about that? Hopefully I don’t have to venture into this thread for another 10-15 years.

Thanks all for your help.

I said I was going with the Telluride, Katpappy.  Didn’t mean to be coy.

It’s pretty sweet that our midlife crisis sleds are going to be old SUVs and not losery Porsche convertibles and whatnot.

Jeeps have barely changed since the early 80s. Pretty wild

I rented a Tesla while I was in DC this week. I really loved driving it. I don’t think it’s very practical for where I live or I’d consider getting one.

Motortrend says you may want to think about getting an F-150.  Here is their review.Ford F-150
Just last year the popular Ford pickup earned a spot on our rankings winners list, but that changes for 2024. Thanks to an effective refresh, the 2025 Ram 1500 is on top of rankings and, in case you hadn’t heard, is our 2025 Truck of the Year.

I drive a 2008 Silverado 6.6 Duramax. Fuel economy sucks balls but I love the beast. Only 183K miles on it. It's good for another 200K miles. Needs a little TLC on trim and a paint refresh. I'll probably do both this year.

Downside is that it's full of bells and whistles. Not a stripped down truck from the 70s or 80s.
