Just to clarify my F150 statement... that applies to Jelly Bean 150's and later (I believe '96)... the 1980- 95, 7, 8 body was awesome. In fact it was so awesome I owned 2 of these. The twin I beam suspension was pretty sweet!

Does this sound right to you? "I sold my Ford to buy a Jimmy".

Your decision reaffirms my plan to ditch my Suburban for an Excursion. It still seems to make sense to me.

Good Luck,

Glad I had this epiphany before I did something stupid...

Suburban:

What a weenie!

Excursion/ Super Duty:


Yeah thats G.W. in his F250 Lariat...

Enough said

It would be hard to explain to anyone... like a good friend of mine said-- how can you willingly go from a loaded cadillac to a base model cavalier?
