Sweet, I went to the Ford dealer yesterday, they had 08 F150 crew-cabs for $18,000. They looked like an XL, but I did see some Explorers and they were like 17k...the prices were painted on the windshields. Looks like there are some good prices out there right now. I looked at a F150 Fx4, The dealer said they would give me $9,000 for my truck...I was shocked, but I dont want any F'ing payments anymore. It was hard to leave after that amount they offered, but I did...lol Salesman has called me twice already this morning..lol

I've had both. At the end of the day I'll keep a pickup for my sanitiy!

Having a pickup IMO just fits for a family guy.
Shoot.. I have 2 at home still. (4 people total) And guess what.. they don't like to take the truck for long trips.
