    Not yet LOL. I did try what you suggested though. I took down some of the worse Roads I know and it felt great.

    I think the biggest killer with the truck was going into the city with it. It's too tall to fit into most garages and I couldn't trust anyone to valet it in the outdoor lots. I do like the extra mpg but the insurance does outweigh it for sure.

    A part of me wishes I did this then a part of me doesn't want to look like the stereotypical Asian in a corolla... I mean it's almost as bad as an Asian driving the new Civic Type R............................

    That's a lot of why I didn't buy a Tundra. It would have been about $100 more per month just in gas VS the F-150 and purchase/maintenance costs were otherwise basically a wash.

    Company is using a new routing program that requires that we enter the hours of operation for every. single. customer. before it'll work correctly. The salespeople were supposed to do it originally (breaking it up so that each salesperson handled JUST their few hundred customers) and just defaulted to 8-5 on everybody. So now we're googling every business for their hours and plugging them into a spreadsheet for our IT department to upload into the system. The ones that don't have their hours listed online need a call instead. This is for basically every tire shop & car dealer between Fort Kent and the VA/NC border, and as far west as Pittsburgh. In addition to my regular job of 300+ calls and a couple thousand emails a day. It's been a busy couple of weeks.

    Mine were dropped off for shipping last week but I guess they couldn't get shipped until tomorrow because things were backed up or something.
