>Yes! your nuts. Aint it great
I could not agree more. Enjoy it. You can't take these trucks with ya when you go. No sense worrying about the petty stuff.

Yes these guys are right,we all must be out of our respective trees.I work out of the union hall and the jobs i go to can be a mile from home or 75 miles from home.The truth of the matter is though,i really dont give a &%@$ because i just enjoy riding in my super duty man.I love to watch everyone run the rat race from my perch above.Can i get a HELL YEA?

i commute 42 miles one way in a 2001 PSD. averade about 16.5 mpg. love it. if you are gonna commute a lot of miles i think the extra money for the diesel is well worth it.

well I got everyone beat for the shortest commute,I think. I put under 7500miles a year on my F250. reason being I take the company car home with me '98 bluebird bus. so I start work right from the house.
I only use the F250 on weekends and plowing snow.

1. I don't commute
2. I don't drive that much.
3. I'm impracticle.
4. I don't care about 1,2, and 3

All above reasons are why I drive a V10

AND yes, I AM NUTS:-X23

Outpost22, Excellent list!

I feel it really gives justification to our cause as Super Duty(and yes, even Excursion)FREAKS!

I would like to add that no matter how long the commute, I can't stand to drive a car!! It feels like my Rear is draggin through the floor. I have to be up above the road, not feel like I'm a piece of the road.

Now, if I may be so bold,I hereby second your reply with a "HELL YEAH!!"

The ONLY "car" I truly enjoyed driving was the Porsche 911 I used to have. Now THAT was driving pleasure!

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 19-Mar-02 AT 05:05 PM (EST)]F_250in_BAMA almost 14 mpg with a V10? I know two different superduty V10 owners that are lucky to get 10. This guy must have a) A feather for a foot, b)everywhere he goes is down hill, or c)both. Seriously though, that is really good mpg and I'm jealous!
