She was, yes. Sorry, I had taken way too big of a hit of Biscotti Gelato and went full send on thought processes last night. XD -

It's just a fancy way of saying "street legal" even though the Jeep and RV are registered in Vermont and I don't get them inspected lol -

Rear tires with tread are a luxury on my car lmao -

Probably easier than wearing slides and having the heel wedge against the floor and making you dump the clutch and fishtail through an intersection totally by accident -

The real question is can you push a clutch with heels on x3 -

Well let me lay it all out for you and you can decide on this. Originally I wanted a 2007-2011 Explorer Sport Trac - strictly a v8 one. Decent towing capacity for an eventual bigger camper, has a usable rear seat, is midsize like my Jeep - which is really all I need in that department... but has a truck bed (the cargo area of my Jeep is fucking worked from treating it like a truck) and I really need 4x4 a lot. Snow, muddy yards, and mainly... beach. These happen to be hard to come by in decent shape with okay miles, and therefore are overpriced. A 2018 and newer Ranger is comparable, but I don't want a $600+ note I ended up test driving a couple trucks very similar to what I got, but they were 5.0 v8's... which is fine, but I don't *need* a v8 (the Sport Trac being an exception because the v6 had 9 miles of timing chains and fail points, hence my want for the v8). I ended up getting a 3.5 Ecoboost v6, which makes comparable horsepower and an ass slap more torque than the 5.0... BUT. I am managing decent miles per gallon with it. So when I'm not using it for truck purposes it drives like a big car, and I now have even more truck abilities than i would with that Sport Trac or a current Ranger. Which means not only can I get an even bigger camper (I am in the market for a fixer-upper, and the bigger ones are cheaper than the little ones like I had wanted for weight purposes), but also I camp in a couple places that allow golf carts... so I can haul that too. But also, the second day I owned it I brought home 64 pavers to build a patio. If I have the tool, I use the tool. -

I'm big 5.3 fan. They will go forever and sip gas, all while providing adequate power. I'm just not a fan of the whole thing it is attached to XD The Ecoboost is a twin turbo, and dangerously easily tunable >.> -

I did a 3700 mile trip in 4 days in my stepdad's very similarly optioned 2019 Silverado 5.3 and while it did ride nice and was quick, I couldn't get comfortable in it. And something about this F150 is intimidating. It's an EcoBoost and I had driven a couple 5.0's but this (particular) truck shits and gets lmao. I tickle 100 by accident. -
