Nice truck, if you have the 8 foot bed like my F150 then an inflatable mattress and cot fits real well down one side, and I had a row of Rubbermaid boxes down the other with all my camping, cooking gear etc.... my truck did me proud for almost 4 years.

When I ran the Nitro, I checked the actual fuel consumption from full tank to full tank and this is what I got from a 308 cu in V8:

Not towing: (going to Jamboree) with self plus two passengers and all out gear - average 17mpg

Towing: Self plus one and Nitro to Tri-Cities and back - average 14mpg

Nice goin John!!! I might have a used Pro-Craft for you this Winter


If...of course I can get to that Bathtub this weekend cuz you know I likes me Pre-Fish-In Scrubdown!!

Cool truck. Owning a Diesel is really cool now.

I had a new programmer installed in my truck before I went to Clear Lake and the improvements were immediate. I was getting around 11.5-12.5 mpg before and now I am getting 13.5-14.5 mpg. The modification only cost $400.00.

FYI for the Diesel owners.

Nice Truck, looks nice and clean and its got a good canopy!!!! If you are ever interested in taking a test drive in my Legend LE-186, just give me a shout.

PS: What size v8 does it have in it?

nice! i had one that same year.  what motor does it have in it?  oh and by the way dont lift it you only get 10mpg when you do that  .  oh and speaking of boats i saw a new ranger model searching the web the other day its at 177tv or something like that looks like a good small boat, and i think that it's pushed by a 115 e tec. check it out john its on their website under vx models...or get a z20 whichever

I'll have to agree with Smitty on that one. I was going to suggest that as well as it is one nicely layed out boat.

A Blue & White Stratos 186 w/115 hpdi would look very nice behind that truck John.

I picked up a used truck other day its a 1993 F150 no frills but its got a tow package & only 125k so should last me long time.
I am not to crazy about paying more for gas then I was use to in the CRV but a much better sleeping space . I am hoping to  put a real camper in it someday.
I did find a cool website for calculating your gas cost According to this it will only cost me $20 more in gas then the CRV for the Riffe Lake torny.

And some more good info if you need http://www.fueleconomy.gov/
Next I have to enlarge my parking space for a bigger boat.
I have looked at lot of boats still have not found what I am looking for but I will know it when I see it just like this truck.
Still going to keep my little boat Because Larry likes my bath tub so much
