GVWR 3500 MEGA VS QUAD CAB
From : Annonymous
Q: i would like to know why the gvwr for the mega cab is only 10500 and the quad cab long bed is 12200. i understood that these were the same truck different cab. the curb weights are not that different couple hundred pounds. i just bought a 4horse trailer with living quraters and it has a pin weight of 3100lbs. with 4 adults and misc that puts me well above the gvwr of the mega. my dealer hasnt been able to find this out. it probably has a softer suspension since it is basically a luxury car attempting to be a truck. yup dc lost a lot of cutomers with that truck. doesnt even come with a plow prep pkg. if at first you dont succeed youre not cut out for skydiving .

tbone wrote his invalid tax cuts that have done damn near next to nothing for the middle class except raise their cost of living holding high taxes in a down economy would have been the wrong thing to do. why the middle class got by far the largest share of the tax cut. yawn back to the fuzzy math once again. you and i argued this quite some time ago and were proven wrong in your suggestions the rich got the larger cuts. lol maybe in your eyes but in reality you are as full of crap now as you were then. while they may have gotten the larger share there are also many more times as many of them and in reality many saw little to no refund while in many cases the cost of living from these tax cuts has increased way above what little extra they may be getting back which becomes a net loss not a gain. -- if at first you dont succeed youre not cut out for skydiving .

tbone wrote why shouldnt at least basic health care be given out to those that are citizens because no valid method to finance it is available. take a look at the uk and france for example. they are struggling with paying for their social healthcare. on top of the absurd income taxes everyone pays they also pay around 15% vat and $7+/gallon for gas because of tacked on taxes. even with all the taxes paid their system struggles. in the uk for instance theyve had to cut back on the guaranteed free college in order to shift funds for healthcare. ya great system. no thanks. .

i would suggest that it is because the frame is longer with a larger but the frame is not larger... thats specifically why the mega cab is only offered with a 6ft. bed - because its built on the same 160 wb frame that the quad cab 8 bed truck is built on. .

tbone wrote the fact miles was that she removed the toxic warnings from the report because the scientists did not have absolute proof that the toxins were there when they submitted it as there were not there yet. and the problem with that is you are kidding right!!!!! the problem is that she is directly responsible for the needless injuries and illness of so many rescue workers. you seem to blast reps for saying something thats not proven then whine again when they dont say something thats not proven. theres a bit of a biased pattern emerging here with you! you really do sound like an idiot. is this really how limited the intelligence of the right has become if you are going to send people into a situation where they might be hurt or killed then you had better damn sure have positive proof that the reason you are sending them in is valid and that they are informed of all possible and especially likely dangers. the idiots that you are clearly a part of have been doing exactly the opposite. during 9/11 they hide information about serious dangers with the condition of the site that should have been reveled and used the excuse that they didnt have positive proof and then tell us that iraq had wmds that they didnt when they didnt have absolute proof and once again sent our people there to get injured and killed for nothing. it is not a matter of making things pretty you dumb fucking asshole now theres the typical liberal debate tactic!! too funny. the only thing funny is how you call just about anyone tha disagrees with your viewpoint a liberal as if being that is a bad thing anymore. it is a matter of causing far more injury than necessary and for what to make that worthless administration look good by getting the rescue workers there immediately are you suggesting that emergency workers should have not gone there not without the proper equipment and minimally they should have been told of the dangers once they were suspected. complaining that rescue workers got on the scene too fast good grief. only a liberal could come up with that rant! only a retard could come up with spin so lame. once the dangers were suspected proper precautions and equipment should have been provided to protect those workers and not only was that not done all mention of these dangers was removed from the reports so they had no idea. just like global warming. unfortunately in this case the people were not able to be saved and the toxic materials were there exactly like the got for ya tbone. there were several people rescued. you gonna tell them you wanted them left for dead no but are you gonna tell the many rescue workers that are now sick and probably dying that the administrations reputation was worth more than their lives -- if at first you dont succeed youre not cut out for skydiving .

tbone wrote lol more half truths. sure the dems voted for some of the reps bs and usually because they had no choice. if they always voted everything down do you think that they would have even a snowballs chance in hell of getting anything done i see. so what you are saying is that the dems have no balls! no what im saying is that the dems have to play the game just like the reps. they wont take a stance. sure they will and look at what happens when they do. funny how you seem to forget how the reps kept changing the rules to stop it and even went so far at to threaten to eliminate the filibuster. you have a very selective memory miles. it is fascinating to watch how it twists and spins the truth. just all talk. now that they gained control take a look at spending since. they dems have increased it through their own initiative spending bills. and the reps seemed to vote them in as well. as i said miles its all part of the game and im sure that the dems had some things that they needed to get done and until recently didnt have the power to do it. i find it funny that you whine about the dems after only 6 months and yet didnt seem to have any real complaints about the reps for the past 7 years. ya its the reps fault the dems are all talk and no action. glad you finally realized it. just the facts and solid reasons why it was not necessary. you already qualified your defense of any spending i may list. yawn just spin. iow you dont actually have anything valid to say. why it was not necessary to you liberals anything you do was necessary. once again you show your ignorance. the fact is the dems said they would start by immedietly issuing spending reduction legislature. they have failed to live up to those words. perhaps they did and for that i am dissapointed but the reps have done no be tter. pelosi is bser. the dems did not start out with spending cut legislature. they went in immediately with higher spending bills than prior. they took a bad situation and made it worse and you defend them. you are doing exactly what you whine about others doing just screaming headlines with no substance behind them. please list what they did to increase spending that was not necessary and dont worry ill wait. -- if at first you dont succeed youre not cut out for skydiving .
