bigredflareside.. do you think before you speak? chevy just came out with a new i-6..270 h.p. they also just came out with a new 6.6 diesel with more torque and h.p than ford or dodge with an alison 5-speed auto, the also have a 496 cu inch motor that makes like 340 h.p. and 440 ft.lbs of torque. i am not praising chevy but they are making an effort.
arent you the same guy who says v-8 trucks are a waste and that the v-6 is faster? do you have any stock tips or bridges for sale?

And my car is not trash, I'd buy a Hyundai before I bought a POS Ford car. (oops there I go again )

I think that I hit a nerve. ROTFLMAO! A new car would be your last concern, Einstein. Another thing, a Hyundai would be a vast improvement over the GM trash that you've got now. BTW, does your mommy know about the foul language that you use when you're on her computer?

This visitor guy (kid) either has some serious buyers remorse for buying crappy products or has way to much time on their hands. Gee Visitor, what did you expect? HMMM....You come here and brag about your CAR? You brag about Foreign products? You come here and brag about how great GM products are, and then you have the audacity to flame Ford Products. Boy you are a genius arent you? You only came to a PICKUP TRUCK SITE that is also a FORD ENTHUSIAST SITE to "voice" your opinion!! Heres my advice to you Visitor, stop wasting our air, our time, our electricity, our knowledge with your pettiness. OK? Have a nice day everyone, I have said my peice.

~Reads down the list and chuckles heartily~

Yanno folks, this is the SAME kind of crap that I see on every Mustang or Camaro enthusiast's board. "Fords suck! Chevy's Rule!" or vice versa.

Personally, I think you should all step back, give your truck a hug and be groovy with the fact that you have a TRUCK instead of some oversized go-kart with 4 doors and a 4 banger powerplant.

BEFORE we delve further into the "he said, she said" BS that's been slapped around here, let's take a look at Ford, Chrysler and GM historically.

Ford has always been the automaker that has innovated new ideas into reality before anyone else does. GM has been quick to pick up the ball AFTER Ford has the lead and improve upon it. Ford goes silent for a year or two and then comes out with a total redesign that blows away the competition.

Until the late 60s, Dodge was sort of off in their own little world. Then they woke up with some KILLER muscle cars and when that craze wore off, they went back to sleep until the 90s rolled around. I admit that they DID make the minivan popular but it's really nothing more than a station wagon, like most SUVs are as well.

Personally, I'm a dyed in the wool Ford fan after having some great experiences with Ford products. If you are a fellow Ford fan, ease back a notch and sip a cold one. You know as well as I do that Ford never sleeps. Let GM fans toot their horns for a bit until Ford releases the next F series redesign. Then you can look down your noses at them and say "Gee, what can't GM ever come up with an original design of their own?"

I can hear this going on till I hit old age and my Grandkids (scary thought..kids or me a parent ) will be arguing with someone else....

"My F-150 will blow yer Chevy (or Dodge) offa the road!"
" Like hell! Wanna Race!"
"Sure..these new 7.2 cold fusion (or hydrogen) motors will kill anything out there!"
"Yer full of hot air! Just because they fly faster in short hop than mine dosen't mean I won't catch you on the ground run!"
"Bring it on!"
"Braggard!"
"Liar!"
Blah, blah blah
....and I'll just be thinking..."Durn kids, why back when I had my 4.6L......"
Ahhhh, youth...LOL

I don't want to get in the fray of "mine's bigger than your's", but as some of you MotorTrend subscribers know, the C3 didn't get that favorable of reviews; however, the Chevy/GM HD's did.

All I ever said was that I had a fully capable, fun truck that has done everything I've ever asked of it. For you guys to tell us who have V6's our trucks are pieces of **** is out of line. I apologize if anyone got the wrong message, but all I'm doing is sticking up for my baby, like I know everyone of you would do for yours.
As far as the 6.6L Duramax. Bring it on. The only thing they have going for it is the Alison auto. For crying out loud the damn thing is made by Isuzu. They may be trying, but my thoughts are keep an American truck American. I'd personally be ashamed to drive something powered by Isuzu. Besides, I've heard the Strokers numbers are once again going up for the upcoming year.

Thumbs down

Sorry guys, but i just read that entire thing about C3. I am ashamed to call myself a member of this board. How old are you all, squibbling and fighting for scraps? I have never seen so many immature people in my entire life! Get a life guys, and especially to the visitors! Does it make you feel like more of a man when you put someone else down? Your immature ways are very outdated. Assuming almost everyone on this board is at least over 16..... I am appalled.

I really don't approve of the personal bashing either. I just couldn't resist the late April Fools joke, which I didn't mean as personal. Sorry.
