This is true, Now most people who drive them never put anything in the back
or tow anything. I think it might be a macho thing or they are trying to
make up for some shortcoming. Especially those that drive 3/4 and 1 ton
trucks.

I have been looking at some mid to late 80's F150's and F250's. The ones
that had manual transmissions were all 4 speeds where first gear is a
"granny gear". Is this normal? I would think that most of the transmission
would be geared more like a car and not have the granny gear.
Thanks
Ted
