        because i still drive the Escape most of the time and i was out of town for a week, i still only have about 300 miles on it. haven't towed with it yet. haven't got on it yet. i like the electric steering. the supercab is the same size as my old truck, so it's easy enough to drive. only thing is that it rides like....a truck.

                So how many freaking miles does it take you to learn how to press the pedal all the way down?

                  Do the folks over there build hoopties out of F-150s?

                                decided not to go with those wheels.
                                got the Line X done yesterday. was going to try to do it myself, but decided i liked the lifetime warrenty.
