"Though maybe not as rugged as a solid F-150"

.... I understand freedom of the press.... but this sort of statement is fit for the lowest tabloid. A farce!

The F150 is about as rugged as two kittens fighting for a pretzel.


I had a joke about a condom, but I'll leave it out.

Better use it, as not using a condom leads to life long consequences!

As for mecdac, CONGRATS!

Very nice Mark (and Rudolph)!
"Though maybe not as rugged as a solid F-150" This is absolutely correct, the Ex is not as rugged as an F-150, it's far MORE rugged than one!

Thanks for all the comments guys, I just returned from a two day business meeting in NashVegas, TN. I drove because I don't like to ride with (most drivers) and I had the EX.

Three other passengers, 3/4 tank of fuel (round trip) and I would not have any stops but one passenger's bladder be like:
