New TV

[ronerjones]

Well I finally made up my mind and ended up with a bit more than I origionally planned on getting, I have always heard bigger is better. Traded in the tired Tundra V6 with 160,000 miles on it for the all American Ford F-150. The back end of the Tundra used to drop 3" when I hooked up the Ford doesn't budge. More power, bigger truck (the kids have more room in back now), better gas mileage WOW.

Not quite sure if the picture is going to post, if it does heres the new truck with camper in tow.

You mean you traded in a Toyota for a Ford?!?  I don't get it? :confused:

Now that's a match made in Heaven.. :cool:
I'm a firm believer in "Bigger is Better" when it comes to TV's.
More room, more cargo space, more power.
Your new rig looks great. Congrats.
Keep on Kamp'n

Good choice.....that's one helluva truck. You'll be very happy when you upgrade your trailer.

Thanks for buying American  :U .

Excellent choice to step up to a real TV!  You won't regret the power, mileage, stability or room, for one minute.

Do yourself a favor and make sure the automatic transmission cooler is large enough to do what you plan on doing, and if you tow in the hills/mountains or high heat, you might consider a mechanical transmission oil temp gauge.  Also, be sure to find out whether or not you can tow in overdrive.

Just one thought as I look at your pic.....the front of your PU looks a little high in the pic (although may may just be the angle of the pic). If it is high, you may want to consider getting a drop-hitch. If you tow with the trailer tongue too high, you may encounter trailer sway, especially in windy conditions or if you tow over 60MPH.

Wana make a bet?

It ain't Japanese that build it, manufacture the parts or ship them to the factory.  While Toyota USA is a subsidiary of Toyota Motor Corp., most of the money made off of selling a Tundra stays in the USA.

Also, according to Cars.com, the Tundra ranks #5 on the list for the most American made vehicle.

Bottom line, mosty of the money stays here, paying American workers, going to American suppliers and America dealerships.  All car comapnies are multi - national corps. now, includiung the "BIG Three", who get a large percentage of their parts from Mexico and Canada, again, shipping money out of the country.

SO THERE  :p

Thanks!!!!  :usflag:

I just can't help but yank a chain every now and then!  Thing is, I should know better than going around poking Wavery with a stick!

OH!!!!! I'm very pokable..... :p  and you're right. Most all small parts are made in other countries.

Toyota does employ American workers and are part of the solution for the "Big 2 1/2" getting rid of the UAW so that they can compete in the market place.

I like to plug Ford because I bought stock in it a couple months ago  :U . I'm buying GM soon....missed it by a penny today. When GM breaks the back of the UAW (which is what this is all about) that stock will hit $20-$40 in 2-4 years. That'll put one of the grandkids through college.
