right.

And maybe I fibbed a little, it was A LOT of air. But, it bent the frame enough to set off the airbags and I had to have one of my front quarter panels realigned. Never did track straight after that..

well there you go that's your problem You weren't driving it right

Did I say I was?

That era of F150 was known for weak frames and poor crash test results. I was providing an (extreme) example to back up the fact. Go look up the test results if you don't believe me. Severe cab deformation was present on the supercrabs in frontal collisions.

Nice, who cares about fords frame, toyotas frame is actully better, how so in many ways? that big hitch right...what did you expect, its still a good truck, there all around plus more. heck I bet you the frame of the 1992-1996 was better than the 97-03.if the tundras so good how come, tacomas are always capped, id laugh if something was in the back but i would could tell, or there arent all rusted with a guy in shades, so crash a Tundra, the air bags gonna go off but the score is what is gonna be said, but The F-150 no trippin,

So now by the way this post reads, you are fighting with yourself now! How many people or voices in your head contributed to this post?

The F-150 isn't what's trippin' around here...........

How was the frame weak, it was the design, but it looked good, people cant drive. I could go on and on, I seen the tundras crash, its not makeing news weekly, seen the f-150 collision frontal and side impact I bet the tundras good if you are a blob, Big 3 need to step up but who cares.

Everyone here likes Ford(except a few occasional trolls). That's why they're here. We just don't like people with their blue oval blinders on. It makes you and the forum look ridiculous.

This post is impossible to interpret or translate.

I nominate it for the NUMBER ONE confusing post of the Millenium.

Except some of the old timers on this site that only bought Ford because they had too and push us to buy Toyota.
