I love her use of subjective measurement. The "storage space is a lot smaller than what you would normally find in a pick up." Ok my demure vegan reporter, how many cubic inches of space does the Titan have? And the competition? Did you look under and behind the rear seat or are you basing this assumption solely on the center dash indention.
Not as good as a Ford? What is the displacement difference? HP Difference? Mileage difference? Towing Capacity difference? Come on. If you are going to insinuate a heads up difference then lets go heads up. Mano y Mano. F-150 v Titan.
Then she points at the AC and says the "Titan certainly has a lot of gadgets. More than you would normally see in a truck." But goes on to to express concern that there is no back up camera and the mirrors are small. Really? an AC is "too many gadgets" and mirrors that are too small to use for applying lipstick while you change lanes towing a horse trailer are a problem?
If the Titan sucks @$$ then it sucks @$$. I can live with that. This isn't about pride or ego. It's about facts and background. If she had stated at the beginning, "I'm a single mom of two small kids who normally drives a Camry and I commute 7 miles a day to work..." Then I'd go "OK" we come from two very different back grounds and she is probably giving a very accurate and valid opinion on what people with a similar lifestyle might think. That is solid value added information. But nope. She starts the review off by holding herself out to be an automotive journalist. That makes her seem somewhat of a subject matter expert and fair game for me to review her review.
Overall I found her review very mealy mouthed and passive-aggressive. There seems to be an extreme lack of objectivity, facts and subject matter. And adding that you are dating a construction worker doesn't add any credibility or negate the fact that your indecisive, ill informed cooch wouldn't know a big truck if someone drove it up in there and parked it over night.
:bangit:
