    I just may have found EXACTLY what I need! :love:

    No need to worry about track fees or new tires and brakes every year. I live in the desert and this truck would be a blast!!

    I wouldn't get the optional graphics pattern on the bed!!!

    6.2 Liter 400hp/400tq available this summer. This truck is a bad ass!! :rock:

    Gee, I don't know... doesn't even come with a light bar. You might want to stick with that ford focus and maybe beef up the rear end a bit.

    You may be right. However, I did manage to roll a Toyota Corolla a couple weeks ago over here. I'll be sure to start a thread about it once the investigation is finished! LOL

    Let's just say, skills are perishable...especially in an unforgiving environment!!

    They have a 5.4 liter (320hp/390tq) out right now. The 6.2 400/400 comes out in a few months.

    We'll see. If I do get one it will be a one year old one from someone who liked it because it looked good. I learned my lesson on buying new on the SRT8. I'd like to trade my TRD in for it after my next deployment.

    That is the best way to buy a vehicle...let the first owner loose their butts in depreciation....that is what I will do in the near future when I buy a Chally..:shifty:

    I'd bet since it was a Toyota, that it was that unintentional acceleration problem that everyone is talking about these days.

    I'm a die hard Ford guy and love this thing. But if the 5.4 STARTS at $40K, the new 6.2L is probably gonna be closer to $50K+ w/ the options that I would want. I cant justify that... The "build your own" on Ford's site doesnt work on my work computer b/c I dont have flash player....
