I swear every time I get in an argument with someone about fords, all they can come back with is acronyms for ford. Am I the only one that gets a little annoyed at this! :icon_rofl: I mean don't get me wrong I don't have anything against chevy or dodges. I'll never willingly drive one but yeah.

Its annoying. It's obviously jealousy when you don't trash their vehicle and they relentlessly trash yours, and not even just your vehicle, the whole brand! I tell so many people they have nice trucks and stuff, then they go on to say "found on road dead" and "driver returns on foot". KISS MY ASS!! They always eat their words when I wont help them fix their junk, plus most of the time im the only person on the trail who has tools, and i rarely need them! I get shit for my KTM atv all of the time, but only till we take off.

Since my ranger became my daily about two months ago I have heard the "At least they circled their problem" about 50 times from the guys at work.

Yeah I hear that stuff all the time... It's gotten to the point where I just have to give them "the look" and they realize I fix their stuff, pull them out, and overall have a nicer vehicle then them and they retract previous statments.

Try showing up to a trail run in an Explorer. Not only is it a FORD, BUT, its an Explorer to boot. I get a lot of guff(crap) until the end of the trail (I usually run tail gunner). My Explorer is built well, and it performs well. Just make the people calling your truck different things eat their words. Thats the best revenge.

I don't generally bash on other peoples cars and trucks but after awhile I get tired of hearing them bash on mine. So I start returning there acronyms with some of mine. Whether its Ford, Chevy, Dodge or whatever they ALL have their up's and down's. I own ford's chevy's pontiac's and a GMC but none live up to my Ranger and Powerstroke
