Re: Stopped by the ford dealership

I guess the extended cab has become the standard cab, too? That's like a thread a member started asking about using bigger brakes asking about backspace on his larger diameter rims. He could only find threads that used "small" wheels. You know, 15", the standard size for 1/2t trucks for eons until the truck newbie market came along. Small wheels would be less than 15" diameter and over 16" would be large.

What next? Will the LS become the standard engine? Has a 4/6 drop become standard height? Steering wheels are too big, cabs aren't big enough, long beds look out of proportion, C/10s look lifted with stock springs, 15" wheels are small, and 300hp isn't all that powerful anymore. The boys need to get their perspective straightened out, is how it looks to me.
