How nice to see that the poor, cash strapped Americans can still afford to buy an oversized Tonka toy in large numbers:lol:jpark said:Forbes just released its list of best-selling cars for the first 11 months of 2008.
So what was number 1? What else?

IMHO, the 2009 F-150 is the most appealing pickup out there. The front end makes me drool.

My personal reasons are simple. I found it to be immensely versitale when it came to the farm equipment, feed and other items required on the old farmstead. That's is where I come from, Ohio farmland and farms. I then used one to deliver televisions, big stereos, appliances and the like as a side job while attending college the first couple of years. When I moved to Texas I still needed one as I worked for carpenters and bricklayers to finish my education at UT. I had a couple years of hiatus from pickups while in the Army and serving in Germany. Once I was discharged from that I worked part time as a cabinet maker and used the truck to carry cabinets to from the shop and the material to build them. Later, in the 90s I started my own landscaping business and used a truck to buy and haul plants and other supplies to job sites. In 1994 I bought the currently owned pickup to pull a trailer loaded with large lawn mowing equipment (think: tractor and 72 mower deck), as my business evolved into a lawn maintenance concern. When I sold everything off equipment wise to move to a new and better paying full time job I kept the pickup as it was so reliable. I'm still using it as my daily driver.arbs said:
