The Ford F-150 Supercab Better than BMW

The last time my e39 BMW 530i was in the shop at BMW of Arlington they loaned me a red Ford F-150 supercab with a Triton 5.9 liter gasoline engine.

I loved it. Its as well constructed as the Beemer and well-designed and really better made than anything I consider an American car. Mind you, my 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo was well-made, but I have to tell BMW of Arlington that they had better be careful.

They are as likely to lose me to the house of Ford as they are to the house of Porsche.

That is one hell of a truck. That is one hell of a vehicle. Four doors, solid construction, plenty of room and lots of power. None of the plasticy squeakiness that American cars are known for.

How can Ford make both the full size Ford F-150 Supercab pickup truck and the god awful Ford Taurus, otherwise known as Ford Tortoise?

The Ford Taurus sucks as badly as the Ford F-150 rocks.
