I personally don't care for them. Rather have a real truck if I was getting a truck. But I know girls like cute!

I personally think your monte is awesome, and I knew someone with a sport-trac, and they're decent. But I like your car way more, lol. I also like Blazer's a lot more than the small ford trucks, if I was to get a truck though the F-150 is a great one.

Ashley don't take my word for it. Research the Explorer. Of all the rollover wrecks I see, nine out of ten are Explorers.

I do love cute. But I have a "real" truck for hauling my trailer, but it's an 83 ford Diesel with a 7 liter engine, stick..and it's not cute. at all. :P And the winters here in Mich are hard on my monte. This winter hasn't been bad, but the poor monte has a rust spot and a couple paint chips from it. Just makes me sad to see my monte look like crap. But I will probably end up keeping my monte because I don't think I could ever part with him.

The Ford Rangers and Sport tracs are not very good looking in my opinion. Now a real truck would be like my father's F-150 King Ranch or a F-150 Raptor

Hey Zach. Sorry to hear about your Mom. Hope she got to go home. Nothing beats sleeping in your own bed. Sorry I missed your Birthday also. Been reak busy around the Rick House this last week. With family flyin in for a week. Just got back from another 8 hr visit AKA party by the pool gig. Glad to be home. I'm partied out. Phone's dead, and just plane tired. Might be an early to bed nite. Didn't get much sleep this whole week. See if I can make a dent in my sleeping hours tonight. Good night all. I'd like to stay on a tease a few of you. But can't do it. I'll make up for it this coming week.
