We put the tailgate down! And it's easier to get the items that always work their way to the center of forward part of the bed. Wait, who am I kidding, that's a pain no matter what length bed you have.

That's a good thing about a pick up! There are plenty of different styles, models and options based on the same platform that you can get the exact vehicle to fit your needs!

I use my non fuel efficient truck to tow my even less fuel efficient boat.

I'd prefer nobody buy a truck personally. That way I have more options when I'm looking for one.

Until you go to the UK or Scotland and see all the Land Rover pickups being used (and I saw a few F150s, too, out on the farms)

And in Germany: ford f150 germany used
