I was thinking the same thing. This truck would be better suited for the off road type of guy.

As soon as fuel goes back to 3 gal plus the truck market will die again. I think all vehicle sales are poor now regardless of fuel economy. GM and Ford are down 40% and Honda is even down 25%. The GMC Denali is a 412hp awd anyway...

Lots of local Talent at SEMA some really good some bad. Lots of candy for the eye in general.

My group has worked out the code word "Irene" followed by the time that correlates with "Irene's" position

Asian women are "Irene form Tokyo" and so on

PS I have lost some money and won some. Two days in I am about even I consider this a win

Well it's official I single handily pissed off the SVT folks at SEMA.

We were standing near the "CRAPTOR" I mentioned to one of the boys in our group that it was a big so what and the production version was very watered down and amounted to nothing more than a gimmick IMHO.


He was not happy and gave me a nasty look and walked off. I did not realize he was behind me but would have shared the same sentiment with him had he asked

400 HP and that is your "bad boy". Rear leafs on a pre runner? What happened to the 4 link? Price tag over $40K

Dear Ford,

Please let me know how this works out for you......


Picture for Terry
