HAMPTON ROADS AUTO SHOW

I was very disappointed with the show. They had a 2011 F250 XLT with a gas engine and it was locked. The rep said it was a pre-production model and they couldn't let anyone inside. There was a crowd there just looking at the exterior. This was the main reason I went to the show to see the new Super Duty.

If i was Ford i would let every tom, dick and harry sit in any truck they wanted to.. there track record with navistar has not been pretty ive had a 6.0l 2005 that needed 1 engine, 2 trannies, and lots of front end work.
now i have a 6.4 that has been in and out of the shop for everything from trim to 4wd to engine work.. but no tranny thank god..

if they dont make good on this one they can kiss there truck market goodbye. im lucky i have a second truck that i can fall back on..get this its a 1997 dodge 5.9 with 468,000 on it and starts everyday never plugged it in a day in its life.. -27 here this am at start up no prob. i didnt say that to start a war.. but it is true.
i wouldnt have bought another Superduty if i didnt like it its just always in the shop all the time which bugs me.

That's how I feel. Open it up and let everyone see the new stuff. I did get inside of a $52,000 2010 Ram 2500 and was not impressed. Not starting a war, but the interior needs some work in my opinion.
