Talking I got my baby back!

Yeah, I know this sounds kind of lame but I got my F250 back today. My fiance has been driving it for the last month to save on gas and I have not done anything but check the oil in it, today I got to drive it again. Much better than her taurus!!!

Congrats on getting back into your truck. I don't like driving anything else but my truck, so I know how you feel. Just wondering, how would she be saving on gas driving your truck instead of a taurus?

LOL... My fiancee drives our truck Monday-Thursday. I have it Friday thru Sunday. She gives me a full tank of diesel for the the weekend and I fill up our Altima! She has offered to NOT fill up so that I may socialize with fellow "dieselers" at Walmart. I miss conversing with others about the truck, diesel, etc. I do enjoy a full tank!

I love Friday's and the weekend. Nothing beats driving the truck! I guess I should head out now and start enjoying it!

Congrats on getting yours back... is it full time?

I hear you. I was without mine for one day for an EGR replacement. Had to rent a Nissan Titan. Man that sucked. So glad it was only a day. I felt like a dooshebag driving that ricer.

Sorry I meant we would be saving gas overall because I drive about 4 times more miles then her.

Ok well that makes sense now lol. I was thinking that there was no way she could be saving gas driving your truck.

When my wife drove the 95 5.8 Bronco and me the 99 F250 with chip she always asked to drive the F250. She liked blowing black smoke and the sound of the 5in straight pipe. When I got her the Excursion she got hooked right away and it took quite a while for her to swap vehicles. When I got the DRW she sort of liked driving it to work but the new feeling wore off quickly and she asked for her little Excursion back.

Still to this day my favorite vehicle to drive is the Excursion. With that huge 44 gallon tank you can really put miles on between fill ups. Plus it's fully loaded which is nice.
