Morgan's 03 Escape doesnt have CC. It blows. It does, however, have the 3.0L V6 which hauls ass for a little SUV.

On the 8th day god created the Super Swamper TSL and said "go forth and kick ass"
I have been in alot of newer vehciles lately without it. Mostly rentals. The 02 Sentra I am driving right now does not.
Been looking at new pickups, but do not want the payment. Found a decent deal on the 01 I asked about, but I think it sold. CC is a must.

When my little sis had the 2006 f-250, it has the xl package so manual everything, no-cruise control. my 2001 f-150 is the xlt so power everything, has cruise control. Just thought I would follow everyone's lead and start a blog.
Why don't you trade that F-150 and that grand cherokee in on some gas 3/4 ton that isn't going to blow up when you tow with it? They can be had at a price where you won't have a payment.Originally Posted by JBrown89
that may be the ticket. Seems most rentals I have driven didn't have CC. Oh and my 98 tahoe SLT has it, 87 xtracab sr5 22re manual transmission does not (and never did)
my 1980 bronco had cc but it never worked for me... jeep does not, dodge and rogue so but you can get both without if you are really cheap

The front seal let go, probably due to improperly installing it when it was rebuilt 12k ago. 3/4 gas = no. An F150 with the new "max tow"package is suppose to be pretty decent gas hauler, but 30-35k for an XLT 4x4 is more than I need to spend.

I don't get it...you have a house and some land now, why not get a real tow b1tch and gooseneck and a comfy, efficient little car for tearing up hwy 105? Probably less money to buy both, even before you start saving a ton on gas every week. I don't think there's a half ton transmission on the planet that was designed to haul that bronco the distances you do.
I was only saying 3/4 ton gasser cause you b!tch so much about diesels.
Are you paying for that apartment in Houston too?

I get perdiem for being over 60miles from home, but between the apt, renters insurances, apt cable, apt bills, truck breakins, gas, gas, and more gas, it doesn't always cover it.I was only saying 3/4 ton gasser cause you b!tch so much about diesels.

Just frusterated right now. Had to drop it off for a couple days after the break in, alternator died at 165k in Bastrop, and the recent trans issues. I know it always soulds like something is wrong with it, but it has been a great truck to me it has been worked and played hard. A new crewcab 4x4 6.5' bed, loaded XLT F150 would run me 34k if financed through Ford. Not horrible, but I do not want another payment. I was out of debt when I bought my house, now have run that up a couple Gs on house stuff etc, which isn't bad.
Tossed arond the idea of a Tacoma, which would get me a little better mileage, yet still be a truck that I could use for Home Depot runs at work. Found an 01 4x4 manual xtra cab with 57k, 3.4L for 10k in Houston, but I think someone snagged it. Put all the miles on that and use the F150 for the 4-6 times a year towing plus my annual Colorado trip.
Really just am not that comfortable in a small car. Maybe b/c I am tall, or maybe I just havent driven the right one yet.
As far a diesels go, 01-03 7.3s all have too many miles on them and are still overpriced IMO. 03-5 6.0 are apparently no good. I contemplated 06-07s but prices are pretty high. I don't really want a 100k+ mile truck, not b/c of the miles on the motor, but b/c of the miles on everything else.
I dunno, just thinking right now.

Understand, you thought about going to something besides Ford?
My 91 chevy 3/4 ton had manual transmission, windows and locks, but it also had cruise control that worked perfectly
I am really not a brand loyalist, but nothing else really appeals to me. GMs just look too plasticy and generic, and Dodges are Dodges. I am sure others say the same about Ford though. It is just a personal preference, I think the Fords look better and drive better.
