Yeah, unfortunate, but with fuel prices the way they are, I've had the same thoughtd. I think I'll tough it out a while longer though.

I was just looking at this:

I would buy the products if they weren't so pricey.

How are things in Nebraska?

Pretty good. I'm pretty busy here today at work. I was mulling over wether to sell my '06, but we need the room on vacations, and I just love driving that thing!! I drive my 97 to work now, so it does a lot of sitting.

I've only had mine since May, so selling it to me would be like "selling out". But I definately understand feeling like it needs to be done.

OK all of you truck gurus... Could somebody tell me the difference between XLT, Lariat, FX4 and all of the different Sub model designations?

and rancho shocks. The Lariat was mainly an interior package, but special wheels might be in that also. Jay, you'd be better off going to the Ford website, and comparing them their, than with what we might guess at!!LOL!

The XL, XLT, ext are trim packages, You start off with the base truck XL, then add features like cloth seats, better radio, power windows, as you go up in packages untill you get to the King Ranch. The FX4 is the off road package, you get limited slip, skid plates, red painted shocks, and stickers. every year they change the packages around to confuse us.

I know it's to early for a toast. However, after driving my "blue betty" it seems appropriate! Top o the morning!
