Polar opposites....
Who else has a similar setup?
Looking at buying a 2013 F150 with crew cab and the long bed. 4x4. Twin turbo 3.5 6cyl is one strong engine...
After driving that for a while and then the Box, it's actually a bit funny how tiny that car really is.
PS...The giant ad at the bottom of my post sucks. I'd pay for a membership to hide that.

Well, sort of similar. The size anyway.
I had my 78 F350 with a 460 for almost 10 years and always had a much smaller car alongside.
Just sold the F350 and 'updated' to an 86 F250 with the (slow, but steady) 6.9L idi diesel.
I see no ads:

If you guys use Internet Explorer, you might want to look into AdBlock plus.

Glad I could help! It will also make Youtube a bit more pleasant not having to deal with ads every time you watch a video.

My winter car is a 99 Legacy Outback Wagon. Automatic.
They both have flat motors, so there is that...
My house is not 100% flat motored with the recent 16 Impreza added.

I switch between the Box and Cayman and for the real crappy days the old reliable 04 Sport trac gets the call. When I drive the Trac I feel like I am riding in the trees.

Ok, I'll bite. 2003 Boxster S and 1999 F250 Powerstroke diesel (with 250,000 miles!). Wife has a 2005 BMW 325 xi that she lets me drive too. Amazing in the snow with Blizzaks!
