F-150 -vs- Mercedes?!

Now that I have your attention...First, I own a 2005 SCrew Lariat with ~60K miles. The owner of the company I work for as a manager is a gazillionaire and drives a Mercedes S500 sedan with all of the fancy stuff. Without going into details, I have been driving the car for the last few days and I have to tell you that I much prefer my truck over the $130K car. The truck drives better, is more comfortable, has more room, and probably gets better mileage. Additionally, the sound system quality paled in comparison to the Lariat. Next time you see one of the expensive cars on the street, know that there is no reason to be left wanting.

They have more $$ for advertising than Ford does.

Some of the dealers (Suburban Ford comes to mind) also deal with Chevies, and the ad rotation is random, so every now and then it pops up.

Hey...FTE makes money for those ads to be shown, I think we can deal with a Chevy ad popping up every once and a while so that we don't have to pay to post here.
