I've been in more than one situation where I had to get on the brakes and it stopped/slowed down.............real quick. I've never had to put the brake pedal to the floor....With an 8000lb load, it's 0-60 time crushes an F150 by a full 6 seconds, so it's by no means a wimpy truck. (neither is an F150)

And yes, I've had it with the Nissan/Toyota bashing. Grow up people!!! Been watching that thread about the new Tundra. Not one thoughtful critique or arguement against it. Just borderline racist and biggoted comments are all I'm reading and all of the sudden people are having Iwo Jima and Guadalcanal flashbacks as if they were there. My Uncle Bob was at the latter, and although he hated Japanese until his last day, he did RESPECT them.

I don't read of anyone calling someone a Nazi for driving a Porsche, BMW or Mercedes.....

Fast forward, here is my advice: Forget names and just go check out a narrowed down list that you make based upon your requirements. My dealer was even going to allow an extended test drive with my boat if I so desired as well. Check out that possiblity. Maybe a diesel in the cards??? Who knows??? Buy what you think is right, (capitalism...yay!)not what the neighborhood thinks you should buy. (socialism...boo!)
