2006 F150 Supercrew 2WD. 10mpg, 11 if I'm careful, and maybe 12 if I only drive on the freeway and don't try to pass anybody. 7-8mpg pulling a 4800lb boat.

This truck defines the term "poor quality."

I can't afford all these fancy cars ya'll drive...I'd rather have health insurance (not saying some of you that have nice cars can't afford/don't have health insurance...but for me, it's either drive cheap cars, or keep my family insured...I choose insurance).

Good on ya'll though...some nice cars here.

Thanks man, I just brought it back from Ensenada last weekend. Stopped over at Dana Landing for two nights did a little fishing with my broker and took it up to Oxnard by myself. It was a little weird coming down from the bridge to take a piss knowing if I fell overboard I'd be SOL.

I'm gonna be taking a lot of trips this summer we'll have to hook up.

Yep, 90 day yacht club. I've been to bloodydecks one of my favorite sites. Ask your buddy if he knows any good spots up in the Channel Islands.

No kidding, dude. After nearly 12 years of being a housewife and stay-at-home mom, my wife may go back to work (as a school secretary) just for the health insurance. It's killing us. Having to pay my own health insurance out of pocket, to insure my wife and I and two of the kids, we're paying $485/mo. to have a $5,650 deductible. Between all the meds for my kid's asthma, wife's interstitial cystitis, and all my back problems, the past couple years we've paid around $15,000/ yr. between premiums, prescriptions, and uncovered doctor visits. You can't live without insurance in case something major strikes, but crappy insurance will send you to the poor house real quick. Even if my wife makes minimum wage, the insurance benefits alone may be worth her going back to work.

Do you keep a concrete block on the gas pedal?

My girlfriend's '02 330 convertible gets 24 mpg average with me behind the wheel.[/quote:1xeehtde]

I must! It is pretty bad on gas.

00 Tundra, not sure on mpg since putting on different tires. Reasonably happy with truck, had some expensive warranty issues with the dealership that were never resolved, but overall the truck has been good to me. It seems to be a magnet for disgruntled UAW worker door dings in parking lots.
