it needs a few things done to it but thats minor yesterday me and my husband wanted to go see a friend in about a hour away trip we thought that $35.00 would do the trip but was we wrong we got within 25 minutes of our trip and realized that if we went further we would not have enough gas to go home on now if you are like me thinking it would be nice to see youre friend I was upset but what can you do if you own a truck and the way gas is it's to much but this one has a 360 enginge in and a 4w drive so hope that explains it but what can a person do?

Yes that's truly the problem with trucks! My husband got rid of his truck about 3yrs ago when prices were still in the $2/gallon area and it cost him $75 to fill maybe a half tank on his Expedition a week! IT's how big the truck is, how big the engine is, and I'm not sure if 4W drive makes a difference or not. We stick with the 4cyl for our work car as $20 will last us a week (we drive under 100mi between both of us). My van that's 6cyl doesn't get us quite as far but still nothing like that SUV was!

Those are hard on gas. It was nice of your dad, but I am sure that if you are on a tight budget, gas is going to kill you. My son, just traded off his truck.
