>>433965I grew up in a family that used Chevrolet pickups and Pontiac cars and drove Chevrolet exclusively until getting a Ford last summer.
Nothing has ever made me appreciate my Chevys like buying a Ford did. Fords just aren't as rugged and lack low rpm torque.
>>433577Whatcha gonna do outside, Opie? If you're carting gear offroad a bit for car camping an SUV might be a good idea. If you're driving in town 98% of the time and driving to trailheads not too far from pavement a crossover like an Outback might be a good idea. If you're hauling lumber, a truck might be a good idea. If you want the original shaggin' wagon, get a 1958 Rambler. It'll get you the hot chicks and the seats fold down into a giant bed.
