Trucks of Tool Bloggers: Made in the USA

I've often shared my love for my Ford F150 and apparently I'm not alone. I took a quick survey of fellow tool bloggers who were more than eager to share their trucks with me and how they felt about them. Despite higher mpgs, not one wished they had a sedan or mini-van.

Let's see the trucks!

Dan Maxey - Tools in Action
2011 Ford F-150 4x4

Dan Maxey of Tools in Action is the proud owner of a 2011 Ford F150 SuperCrew 4x4. He's got the Lariat package and opted for EcoBoost.

Dan says, "I like my truck because it has the power I need to tow heavy loads, its comfortable and the sound of the EcoBoost twin turbos is awesome! Its Ford Tough. The 4x4 gets me around any job site."

"I don't like the payment and the mpg isn't quite as advertised. But if I had to do it all over again it would be another F150 EcoBoost."

Sounds like a great endorsement! The EcoBoost in 4x4 is rated at 15 city/21 hwy which sure beats my 2001 5.7 Triton at the pump and at 365 HP and 420 torque it's got more power.

June Is Best Month To Buy Tools

For the home improvement amateurs and experts, tools are a necessary part of the job. And with new models coming out in a nearly constant rotation, the temptation to add to a tool collection is ever-present.

Thanks to the brilliant minds at Lifehacker, you now have a bonafide excuse to indulge your tool-buying whims. Their breakdown of the best things to buy in June includes tools, a trend that can be traced to Father's Day. Because so many people opt to buy their fathers (or father figures) tools, many retailers use the month of June to offer tool discounts and specials.
