It was to bulky for her, Pedals were to far away, she was on top steering wheel the entire time, and they had an airbag right at her knees.. she also had way to many blind spots.

All these problems were no problem in the f150. And it has the echo system for backing up , so that solves that problem too.. The added bennifit is that the ecoboost can pull 9800lbs with the 3.55s so thats not bad at all.. we were looking to get a camper later on anyways..
