Ford F-Series Real World MPG Numbers
rpinks_99 Posts: 6I know none of us are "happy"....but I'm about to trade up from my 3.0 (2006) Ranger to an F-150 4.6 super cab.
Other than the EPA estimates for fuel mileage, how big a shock will I get with the 4.6? I don't get that great a mileage with my Ranger, approx 16 mpg on average.
I drive conservatively (I'm 56, and my fast years are far behind me!).
Any thoughts opinions appreciated! -

gmacy Posts: 1I have a '97 Ford F-350 pickup, 4x4 with a 5.8 v8 auto trans. The truck only has 54,000 miles on it and it in good shape. Does anyone know if I can do anything with the gas mileage? I average betweem 7 and 9 mpg all the time. The truck will pull a house with the 4.10 gears. I've done a k&n filet, 3" exhaust, synthetic fluids all the way around.
Any one have any other ideas? Thank you in advance. -
bruce74 Posts: 1I have a 1999 f-250 super duty, 7.3, that gets about 17mpg around town when I'm not towing. I pull a 5000lb camper, pull behind, with a 700 lb motorcycle in the bed, and then the mpg drops to 11mpg. I bought the truck used, so I don't know that much about it, Its got about 170,000 miles on it. Anybody know what could cause that much drop in mpg. My little f-150 towed the same camper and got 10.3 mpg.
igiveup3 Posts: 2Okay geniueses.The question of the day is if you can drop the engine RPM by 100,200,300 how much econo change can you expect to get.This may be possible and still maintain 70 MPH,on the big road.Have a couple of ideas, that I am pretty sure can achieve the RPM drop.Does anyone know how much difference the drop will make?
hazmatchuck Posts: 1Hello, I have the same 1997 truck (mine only has 87,000 miles) and it is a 4 door with the 460 engine...it has always been around 10 mpg or maybe 11 if truck is empty. I have owned it since 1999 and now this year it gets 4mpg and maybe 5 mpg if I really baby it along and dont idle at all in cold weather...what is the deal? did you ever hear what might be the cause? I have done regular maintemance....am now going to replace all plugs, wires, distributor cap fuel filter, etc. and see if that makes any difference....please email me if you have any ideas. Thank you

pollard_83 Posts: 1I will be purchasing an f-150 extended or crew cab truck in the next month. I'm just not sure if I want an 4x4 or 2x4. My situation is I drive around 4-5 k miles per month. I live in the mtn's of NC and fight snow and bad weather but I already have two 4x4 f-series trucks. Should I get a 4x4 or a 2x4? If weather is bad I can drive one of my less dependable trucks? But is the lack of maintnance and better gas mileage going to over throw the luxury of 4x4? Thanks, this decission is driving me nuts. Is anyone in the same boat, or just have a bone to throw?
t_dog Posts: 1This maybe too late to help you but I just bought a 2010 F150 Super Cab 3 weeks ago with the 5.4 lt. V8 and maybe it helps you or helps someone like you or me who wants to buy a new truck. We just went on a trip to Cali. from Seattle last week and planned about 2000 mi. My truck was/is brand new and I really really love it. I was worried about the gas mi. since my last one was a 2006 F150 4.6 Super Crew and the gas mi. was not great 2 WD as well. I got 18+ miles per gallon. It also seemed to improve as the trip went on. The trip computer only went as high as 16.2AVG miles per gallon but filled it when we left without topping off and filled it again without topping off at the first half tank in OR. 36 gal tank and at half a tank I put in 18.23 gals. I got 323 miles on the first half tank so it was approx. 18 mi. per gallon. Take into acct. that I don't have a topper or toneau cover and no extras. I was pretty pleased. So I got about 640ish miles on single tank. I was also carrying about 1000 lbs of gear, not much but if I put a cap on it I bet I will get closer to 20. Also I seemed to do better around 75 mph. cruising about 70 to 80 was only a diff. of about 150 to 200 rpm.
mdsparks73 Posts: 1Try calculating your fuel mileage by fillups, not by the dash readout. You'll find that you're only getting about 15 at best. I have a 2005 F250 Lariat FX4 6.0 with EGR delete, AFE Stage2 intake, Magnaflow 4" turbo back exhaust, 3.73 rearend, Amsoil synthetic front to back and I still can't make 16MPG. My dashboard readout will show from 18-24MPG but fillup calculations come out to 14.5-16.
If your numbers are fillup calculations I have to say you got a diamond in the rough because the 6.0's are notorious for bad fuel mileage, worse than the 7.3's, and the 6.4's are even worse at 9-12.5MPG.
Good luck with your mods. Some words of advice, go with SCT programmer, do not use K&N filters use AFE, AEM, Banks filters, get an EGR delete kit, a 4" exhaust system, and an ARP head stud kit is imperrative with these mods or you will be blowing head gaskets. This is from experience so trust me. -
boatingshow Posts: 2What is the rear end on this truck, I have 4.10 and it gets about 12.5 to 13.5 empty. Most of my driving is between city and highway. I realy drive highway but when I do I get somewhere between 14-16.5 (I only ever got 16.5 when the truck was brand new....driving it home from the dealer...and back down to pick up the car I used to pick it up in.

dconnor Posts: 20I have a 2011 F150 Supercab with the 3.7 L. V6. I got that because I don't need heavy towing capacity and I was hoping for somewhat better gas mileage. I am usually pretty good at getting the estimated mileage on vehicles, if it is possible. Rather than 17/23 I am seeing more like 15/19 at best with an overall average of approx. 17. Is anyone getting anything close to the mileage they state for this V6? ronnoc
bigmclargehuge Posts: 377I just drove 286 miles (all highway) on less than half a tank. With about 20 miles until empty, as per my mileage calculator on my dash.
That's above 20mpg highway. My dash mileage monitor said 22.1, and I'm inclined to believe that isn't far off, because of the distance I traveled without having to fill up. I was astonished that I didn't have to stop to fill up dozens of miles before I did.
Averaged 60-70mph the whole way. Relatively flat (Rt. 95 from Maryland to Connecticut), but it is riddled with toll booths, so room to improve on mileage even.
And mine is the 4x4, Supercab, and the gear ratio is 3.73.
Not making this up. 20++ mpg highway out of a stock 4WD version of the EcoBoost F150.
I'm a bit of a light-foot (I like vehicles with ample power, so I don't always have to rev them). So I'll bet I could get ~24mpg out of a 2WD Ecoboost equipped Fun-50 from Florida to Maine, traffic and weather permitting.
GM says they are not worried about this engine, but they are underestimating its capabilities! -

96gc1owner Posts: 54Just finished a 465 mi round trip from Maryland to Virginia with mostly light traffic, mid 70's outside temp, running 65-70mph, A/C off, no load. Averaged 18.1 mpg calculated. Mine has the Goodyear Wrangler off-road tires (like the FX4) and HD tow package. I cleared the trip computer and ran it about 200 miles with the computer reading 19.8 to 20.1 mpg, but I don't go by that for real world numbers. I typically get 10-11 mpg towing a 6,000lb camper that has 80 sq ft of frontal area. Luv this truck!

just_focus CincinnatiPosts: 29Just finished the first tank of fuel (Dealer supplied) and got 17.8 mpg this was 50/50 driving and about 50 miles of it was stop and go traffic not getting above 5mph. I am happy with this tank but am pretty sure I will average on the positive side of 20 mpg. The computer said 18.5 so it was not too far off. I almost bought the 3.7 V6 but after seeing the mpg that they are reporting I opted for the 5.0 I also looked at the Eco-boost but would of lost some serous rebate money. I think the 5.0 is so close in mpg to the Eco-boost that it is a wash plus this 5.0 takes me back to my GT Mustang days.

Trained as a sculptor, David Yurman approaches the design of a piece of jewelry from every angle. "It's about the whole piece," he says. "How it feels in your hand, how it looks on the back as well as the front." He combines shape and form to create designs with volume and dimension—wearable sculpture. "Form is form," he explains, "whether it hangs on a wall, goes on a pedestal, goes on a wrist, or goes on a neck. Learning how to balance a little sculpture on a stand is really no different from learning how to balance a stone on the end of a bracelet."
Daring design is a David Yurman signature. In the Cable Wrap collection, he defies conventional settings, binding magnificent gems with strands of Cable and diamonds. Customary stone shapes are replace with unique silhouettes. The result is innovation at its most elegant.

Take flights to Warsaw for hearty Polish food, boutique shopping and historic strolls around Warsaw Old Town.
Things to do
Be inspired by Warsaw's cobbled Old Town, rebuilt from scratch from the rubble of WWII. Here horse-drawn carriages clip-clop past pastel-hued merchants' houses, neo-Gothic St John's Cathedral and the turreted Royal Castle.
Browse for amber, antiques, fine chocolates and designer fashion on elegant 19th-century boulevard, Nowy Swiat. No Warsaw city break would be complete without pausing for cakes and caviar in luxurious Blikle Delikatesy.
Join hungry Poles in an old-world karczma (tavern) south of Warsaw's Old Town. Dine heartily on generous helpings of beef stroganoff with dumplings, pierogi (Polish ravioli) and fat pork knuckles with sauerkraut.
Lanterns cast a soft glow over Warsaw Old Town's cobbled lanes and stately plazas by night. A chattering hum rises from pavement cafés and bars framing the Market Square, a perfect spot to relax over a beer after your Warsaw flights.
When to go
KLM has frequent flights to Warsaw. Time your Warsaw holiday to catch open-air concerts on the Market Square at July's Jazz Festival, or movies at Warsaw International Film Festival in October.

Another cute JUBber just went on my ignore list today for being annoying. That's been happening a lot lately. The guys always start off cute and seem nice at first...until they inevitably offend me in some way that turns me off. For some reason, the cuter a guy is, the more it "stings" when he annoys me, and I end up feeling disappointed. It even hurts my feelings sometimes. It's such a letdown.
Long story short, the guy in question got bitchy with somebody (who didn't deserve it) over something stupid and that bothered me. I know it's petty but I can't help it. Something about cute guys being mean just gets under my skin, for reasons I can't fully articulate.
By the way, guys, sorry I've been such a downer lately. I know it's getting redundant. It's just that time of the month again. I'll be alright.
Alright gamer nerd rage time.
Yes that comment makes me angry like no other! Ugh. Today seriously sometimes I think as long as it's got standard graphics (i.e. looks like every other game out there, think FPS) the game could literally play like trying to navigate your way through a Charles Dickens novel using a wet fish (which is still alive) as your controller and gamers would say it's at least better than those shitty old games with bad graphics that only hardcore bitter oldschool people say are good.
Ugh! Die in a fire!
i think my destiny is to be a fighter or a boxer or something that pertains to fighting since i love fighting for some reason. watching this fight right now, i wanna be in the boxing ring swinging off on somebody's head. i can't fight or know how to but i'm willing to learn. should have continued martial arts when i was a kid and i would have been able to whip ass from here to whereever whenever i felt like it. have so much anger that i would love to get out with my fist instead of speaking or writing it or whatever.
one thing about the closet/you don't have to hurry/it will be bad tomorrow/so brother, don't you worry
I still play my Nintendo 64...
love the old games I have
one thing about the closet/you don't have to hurry/it will be bad tomorrow/so brother, don't you worry
Not a confession, but i'm glad there's a few more newbies on the scene, and they actually talk
holy shit. the unthinkable happened. pacman got knocked the FUCK out!! HOLY SHIT! not a confession but still....
one thing about the closet/you don't have to hurry/it will be bad tomorrow/so brother, don't you worry
I still have 17 games for my N64..some I haven't played in a long time
here lately I've been playing Duke Nukem Zero Hour, and Star Wars Episode 1 Racer
Nintendo 64 was the cool system my sister had. I was stuck with the Intellivision and (way back when) the original Atari Video Pinball console. Yes, the one with the faux-wood console.
^^^ I LOVED Duke Nukem!!!!
I couldn't tell you how many times I made him Pee... Just because I could.
In The PC version you could make your own levels. I spent HOURS making my own levels, or downloading ones other people made, including the TREK conversion.
I feel kind of gross. I just broke up with my boyfriend four or five days ago and I'm already setting up a rebound fuck.
This video pretty much sums up my opinion on a lot of newer games:
They tend to be less intuitive and more tedious. Rather than introducing a new concept or obstacle with subtlety, there are hints and explanations for how to overcome it. There's less thought involved and it detracts from the feeling of accomplishment. In particular, the game design of more recent FPS games tends to be slower, and seems to focus more on realism rather than competitive gameplay. Games like Quake and UT99 are fast paced and intense, and there's a larger skill ceiling because reaction time and flickshots are more important when the game speed is higher.
I think game designers are focusing more on cut scenes and realism because it appeals to the largest market; casual gamers. People like myself who tend to focus on the competitive / skill based aspects of video games are the decided minority, and it's going to be much more profitable for them to focus on appealing to casual gamers. It sucks for sure, but that's just the way it is.
Nostalgia is just one of many reasons I prefer older games to new releases.
^The video game conversation is interesting.
I remember Space Invaders when it came out in 1978 (?). Crude graphics, but the suspense was wrenching.. The game got faster and faster, and built into a crescendo. It always made my heart pound.
That's the thing. I'm nowhere close to being over my ex, and I still feel like I made a huge mistake breaking up with him. I doubt a rebound fuck would help one bit, but I'm still going through with it. I really don't care right now.
Maybe I'm just having a bad night.
I don't see why you should feel gross, as there isn't anything "wrong" or "bad" about it. I mean, how long do you want to stay monogamous to someone you're not in a relationship with anymore? The only "wrong" thing about this is that I'm not the one who gets to do dirty fun things with you
What tends to bother me about video game sites/threads/videos is that things seem to have to be a pissing contest, or people don't like the fact that you don't play on a certain console or that you don't play on PC. I've played video games since I was a kid, in the 90's. The first 2 games I played were Bubble Bobble and Mickey's Mousecapade. I really don't see why it matters that I grew up playing on consoles instead of growing up playing games on the PC. I don't see why it is a big deal on why I don't want to exclusively play games on the PC or the PS3 or Xbox 360. That would be boring and I am limiting my taste.
I watched a Video of a guy on youtube the other day of him playing Far Cry 3 and he played in on a console. That was a big no no to people in the comments section and they couldn't accept the answer that he was playing on there because he wanted to play with his friends. Him and his friends who apparently are "casual gamers" because they don't play on the PC.
And something to add, people always going on about how graphics don't matter and what not. The same people are then the ones in these comments yelling at this dude for playing it on console because it looks better on PC.
There is a new Devil May Cry game coming out that people are really hating on because they don't like how the game is turning out. I've played and enjoyed the series for years, since it's first title. According to these people that don't like it, I am not a "true" fan because I find myself enjoying this one. The same thing goes for Resident Evil, been playing since the first one but apparently since I am open to give the new ones a chance I don't like or appreciate the old games. For some reason it isn't possible for me to like both.
It's my favorite hobby and it probably always will be. When I come to talk about video games, I really don't care what/why/how/where they play their games, it's just that they do play games. For the most part the gaming threads on this board are really level headed and generally are these people that enjoy games and just want to share and talk about them with others. It is pretty refreshing from the rest of the internet.
it was kind of an amazing breakthrough not sure what was so different, my inability to get off via someone else jerking me off was definitely not for lack of trying.
made a fucking mess too neither of us were expecting it and I was in a pretty bad position to cum.
Sounds like fun! Sex is supposed to be messy.
I've had ex's like you, that I could never make cum - they were the only ones who knew the secret. It's good to hear one of you guys were fixable. I've never been able to determine if their 'problem' was physical (conditioning to their own jerking off methods), or psychological (unwilling to mentally let go completely).
It's really disappointing when you thought someone was doing something out of the kindness of their heart, when they in fact had selfish motives.
If that's one of those Trek Star Fleet Academy type fly a star ship around and kill things games, No. Well... I've TRIED to play them, but they use EVERY fuckin' button on the key board. I hate to admit that I'm just too dumb to play those games. I cannot for the life of me memorize what every button does.
"Raise shields! Raise Shields! How the F*** do I raise shields???"
I'm good with about 7 buttons. Up, Down, Left, Right, Jump, Shoot, Run. That's IT.
***Confession*** Even with Duke Nukem, Blood, or the Star Trek Elite Force, and Star Trek Armada games I've played, I could never get through them without the cheat codes and "God Mode" being on.
Tomba, you are correct that some of the rivalry between the two camps is pissing contest, yes. But I think it's worth pointing out that 15 years ago, there was no pissing contest. Console games were console games and PC games were PC games, a few (almost universally crappy/unrecognizeable) ports aside. The technology and the markets were just way too different and consoles in particular had very proprietary contracts for the release of various big name games or series-- some still do to this day and are only playstation exclusives or whatever else. The problem is that when xbox came not within the same range but within a really far baseball's throw of the PC's capabilities--- people went "hey, why don't we just make one-game-fits-all for BOTH pc and consoles, that way we make more money!" And they did.
The problem with that is like it's trying to make a movie that's going to be loved by fans of a novel series and fans of a comic book series. The crowds are extremely different in terms of what they look for and have been for years, almost going back to the very beginning of gaming. As a general statement, the console market is more transient, plays many more games per month/year, goes through games faster, and favors ease of gameplay and intuitiveness, not having to invest too much time/thought, and basically just a fun, casual game. PC gamers tend to throw themselves more into a smaller number of games and try to play the hell out of them or get really good at them-- PC gamers playing a game like League of Legends, Dota, Counterstrike, World of Warcraft, Quake or Diablo II for YEARS on end is not at all uncommon. As a result they tend to value replayability, high at-release quality and bugtesting, good support over time with patching for any issues that may crop up and affect gameplay, etc.-- issues that have traditionally been moot for a console gamer by comparison, particularly if they are done with a given title in 2 weeks and move onto the next one.
I definitely grant you that some of the hostility is just immature tribalism. Go over to xboxnation and take a look at how they talk about PC-- you'd think we're all satan worshippers trying to enslave console gamers and create a gamer master race using eugenics. (You'd also think we all live in a basement.) But PC gamers do have some legitimate gripes-- basically, you're hard pressed to find a PC game that isn't, at this point in time, just a port TO the PC from the xbox rather than the other way around--- and the xbox is for all intents and purposes a 10 year old PC more or less. We don't get games anywhere near our potential, we get console UI's (huge blown up text that take up too much of the screen, enormous menus, everything aimed at assuming you're playing on a couch from 30 feet away from the TV) and control systems that assume you're using a controller and not a mouse and keyboard-- radial menus, etc. Additionally as console ports we're getting, by our standards, easier, simpler games with less thought, depth or complexity. You can see this very clearly in series that began as PC series and turned into multi-platform after xbox-- a frequent word you hear about the games that crossplatformed was they felt "dumbed down." Games like Oblivion and Fallout 3 would be examples, though at this point virtually everything made is cross-platform. We also get more rushed games with less replay and almost no support over time because support over time is virtually unexpected in the console market (since in the past you COULDN'T patch any game on a console system anyway) and we're getting ports of console games for the most part.
So long story short, no, I don't think someone is bad/dumb/whatever because of where they play games, but I do think the one size fits all glut of game development has stunted the quality of PC gaming in a very major way that has left PC gamers distinctly unhappy with the direction of game production. There's a lot of myths out there like "PC gaming is dying"-- it isn't true btw. Steam shows friggin enormous PC game sales, saying that PC gaming doesn't sell as well is a half truth-- the full truth would be "It doesn't sell as well as something we can sell on both PC and xbox at the same time." Unfortunately if you're making a game to do that, you're not really making a PC game anymore, because that generally won't fly in the console market.
- - - Updated - - -
I think if you're saying you think it's a bad idea, it is probably a bad idea.
I understand the gripe about PC games pretty much being ports but that isn't the fault of the people who play consoles as much as it is the fault that developers think they need to push games out quickly and one of the versions gets shafted and not even worth playing. I'm not the type of person that thinks a franchise needs a yearly release. But unfortunately this is the case.
I think this is an unfair generalization. One example, not everyone can afford $60 dollars for multiple games that come out, so that leaves them with making a decision on one game and that then leads into them really putting time into the game because it's all they have. And that's just one example. I know people who play Dark Souls (originally a console exclusive game) who have put hundreds of hours into it and that is game that really represents everything that is not casual current gen gaming. It's one of the more difficult games to come out recently and it did really well when it came to sales.
As for bug testing/high release quality, Street Fighter X Tekken is an example of a console fighter that pretty much fell off the map because it was clearly a game that was unfinished, had bugs, on disc dlc and numerous other things. In the FGC (Fighting Game Community) you didn't see that game being streamed at any events within a couple months because of those things. And these would be console gamers or "casual" gamers.
Ninja Gaiden 3 would be another game that was completely shat on because it offered no real challenge. There are plenty of examples from the "console community" who show they care about specific games because they put in a lot of time on learning them, re-playability and wanting a good quality game.
The thing that benefits these games are they are online and some of them were online before internet connectivity on your consoles became a big thing. Also, these games tended to have expansion packs as well. There are people who are on consoles who either don't have internet or won't pay for xbox live (and I don't blame them).PC gamers playing a game like League of Legends, Dota, Counterstrike, World of Warcraft, Quake or Diablo II for YEARS on end is not at all uncommon.
I agree it's the fault of devs being greedy and not making specialized to the software they're developing for. If anything PC gamers are to blame for buying these crappy console ports because if they didn't people might actually do dedicated PC development. However there you will find no shortage of console gamers to say things like PC gamers are just bitter old hardcores who want unfun games because they never leave their mom's basement and there's nothing wrong/different/inferior about for-console development vs. pure PC development. Unfortunately we do know different because we remember pure PC development, but you never make any console gamer friends saying so.
Developers aren't making games based on one person's specific conditions. They're making them for broad casual mass appeal. One size fits all. And that 'size' is "transient gamer who averages <2 weeks in a title, 90% of the time doesn't finish it, doesn't play for balance/competition, doesn't want to think too much, just wants to sit down in the living room and pew pew."I think this is an unfair generalization.
That may not be you but that IS who games are being made for. And not just for you but for everyone.
When my partner is off somewhere and calls me/leave voicemails that end in "I love you"...I find it hard to delete those.
I think I've only ever loved 2 guys romantically, and never told either of them.
now, one is dead and the other is an asshole.
one thing about the closet/you don't have to hurry/it will be bad tomorrow/so brother, don't you worry
Hmm...according to this post, I'm SloppySeconds, and so is anyone else who defends him.
This "witchhunt" mentality around here is getting ridiculous.
one thing about the closet/you don't have to hurry/it will be bad tomorrow/so brother, don't you worry
i hate hearing songs where you have the singer begging for some love or some ass. the most pathetic line, rhetoric or whatever that i can't stand hearing is "i can't eat without you". you damn right you can't eat without me because you can't cook. go and buy yourself a cookbook or get you some cooking lessons so you can survive on your own instead of living foot to mouth, asshole.
one thing about the closet/you don't have to hurry/it will be bad tomorrow/so brother, don't you worry
one thing about the closet/you don't have to hurry/it will be bad tomorrow/so brother, don't you worry
yeah, i am. *shrugs*
the thing that surprises me about this forum is that you guys actually read the posts. i'm like damn... i can't say anything without someone going "didn't you say this last night or last week?" you guys are good. i'm too lazy to cover my tracks. it's a good thing that you guys aren't using it to knock me down with them though like what marquez did to pacman last night.
still and
one thing about the closet/you don't have to hurry/it will be bad tomorrow/so brother, don't you worry
And you have PC elitists who will think they are a better gamer because they're not playing on an "inferior" system. Both people who play on consoles and on PC who are complete dicks or condescending to on or the other. Neither are better than the other.
I understand why developers and publishers make games the way they do. My point still stands that it is not a fair generalization as much as it isn't fair to say PC gamers are bitter basement dwellers.Developers aren't making games based on one person's specific conditions. They're making them for broad casual mass appeal. One size fits all. And that 'size' is "transient gamer who averages <2 weeks in a title, 90% of the time doesn't finish it, doesn't play for balance/competition, doesn't want to think too much, just wants to sit down in the living room and pew pew."
That may not be you but that IS who games are being made for. And not just for you but for everyone.
that's what's funny. that thread about him wouldn't have been made if more people used the ignore list. sloppy is like the adorable teddy bear that is nice to hug up with at night in the wintertime. he may not know how to speak english but that's my sloppyseconds. *wipes tear from eye*

I think for a great deal of people who come here, JUB is their only refuge from the 'straight world' where they can bare their soul, take off their masks, and socialize with like-minded people about being gay. Admitting that sort of thing can be very hard for a lot of people, and I think it's kind of expected that everyone in the 'room' appear to be just as vulnerable.
Sloppy has been outed as having not portrayed this persona in the past, and he hasn't ever offered anything substantially personal about himself (at least that anyone else can translate). People don't like being played or taken advantage of, as evident in the Andrerus thread.
If you walked into a gay bar and there was a guy sitting there with a paper bag/mask over his head I would bet you'd steer clear of him too. If he's not hurting anyone, WHAT is he doing? Collecting evidence? Who knows. It's just creepy.
Just saw geloge's photo!
He's HOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just got an offer on PlentyOfFish to be one of a married man's "bottombois". Sorry, I have a little too much respect for myself to get involved with your impending clusterfuck of drama and be treated like a sex toy. I don't care how big your cock is.
All the fucking time, and I LIVE with my mother! She over-elaborates on everything too, and I'm like "Pleeease!!!!!!!! Just give me the cliffnotes. I don't need the long version."
She talks WAY too damn much, especially during movies (and not just normal, short comments...she goes into these LONG conversational acecdotes that always make me miss the good parts) or when I have my headphones/iPod on (it's like "BITCH, DO YOU NOT SEE THESE BIG ASS HEADPHONES ON ME? I obviously can't hear you, and I'm pre-occupied, so why do you keep talking to me? Can't you tell how impatient I look when I keep taking my headphones off and on to answer you? SHUT THE FUCK UP!" ).
I don't talk to her like that, but those are my inner thoughts when she does that stuff.
Oh...oops. What thread is it in now?

There is nothing better than seeing a hot milf with nice big boobs just like this hottie Rin Aoki who has it all and here you will see that she isn´t just another pretty face, she is a fucking machine and here you will be seeing this really fine looking girl showing off what a horny girl she really is as you will be seeing her giving one of the best massages while in her sexy lingerie. Watch her end the action with a tit fuck and cock sucking!
When you have a curvy body like Rin Aoki, you need a good pair of hands to give you the massage you need. And after looking at her big tits all oiled up and her ass shining at him, this masseuse would do anything to keep his hands on her for as long as he can! Not only does he massage her tits and ass, he´s burying his fingers in her pussy and making her cum.
Now that she´s a newly-married babe, Rin Aoki wants to show off just what he gets full access to on her sexy body. It seems like those huge tits of hers are what´s catching his eye most of all, as he sucks on them before she sucks on his dick. Even though they´re still in a bra, they´re bouncing everywhere when he´s drilling her tight holes.
Thanks to a helping hand and a powerful vibrator, housewife Rin Aoki is getting a deep massage all over her body, but especially between her legs. She shows off her huge tits while she gets her massage, as the vibrator makes her nipples stand up before he slides it over her panties and makes her pussy drool. Now she´ll have soaked panties all day long!
Rin Aoki is one sexy ass hot milf that is busty as hell and that would make the perfect housewife for any man. You wouldn´t want this hoe going around if she was your wife as she is so horny that she would probably fuck anyt guy that she sees. Watch her in this hardcore action with lots of dick riding and cum on tits hot action.
After dinner, this guy´s got a craving for Rin Aoki´s big mature tits, as he goes out to her bed for a midnight snack. She´s hungry too, and sucks on his hard meat before sliding it in between her massive tits for an amazing tit fucking. They both get a treat while they 69, and he´s mesmerized by the way her big boobs bounce as he fucks her and cums all over them.
Rin Aoki trusts her gorgeous curvy MILF body in the hands of her masseuse so much that she doesn´t even want a massage today from him. All she wants is for him to use that magic he has inside her pussy, and he can´t wait to fuck her amazing body! He´s got those enormous tits bouncing all over his massage table, and gobs of cum to shoot on her big boobs.
Now that all her chores are done at home and she gets some time to herself, busty housewife Rin Aoki lays down for some self fun with her body. She can have a lot of fun with those huge tits she has falling out of her shirt. She grabs a hold of her nipples while the other hand goes down between her legs as she masturbates. Little does she know she´s being watched.

Monday, a groundbreaking ceremony was held for the Noblin Sewer System.
According to Will Hooker, county administrator, the new sewer system will improve the quality of life for the residents in the subdivisions.
Hooker said each family would receive a 1,000 gallon septic tank that will be treated and maintained by Cleveland.
"It has been a long time coming, entirely too long. There are some things that I feel that the government should do and maintaining a proper sewage system is one of them," said Catherine Farris-Carter, chancery court judge.
According to Supervisor Larry King, citizens had been complaining about the unpleasant odors and raw sewage, which were results of a lack of proper sewage drainage system.
"We have had so many promises about this project taking place but they didn't do it. We have had a great number of letdowns. Will Hooker has been a very strong force in this matter. We truly appreciate the city of Cleveland for working with us and Boyle-Skeen Water," said Mira Foster, president of Noblin Utility District.
As said by Andrew Williams, president of the Bolivar County Board of Supervisors, the citizens remained proactive and they did not give up on having a suitable sewage drainage system.
"One of the reasons that I decided to run for county board of supervisor in 1995, was when I found out that there were citizens in Bolivar County that had raw sewage running out of their back doors, so to speak," added Williams.
In 2009, the county began requesting a partnership Cleveland to allow the Noblin and Stanton subdivisions to tie into its sewage system.
"Boyle-Skeen Water Association and the city of Cleveland successfully partnered to make the lives of the residents safer. This project is long over due and I am pleased that it is finally being rectified," said Hooker.
In order to aid with the project, members of the Board of Supervisors sought funds from various agencies.
According to Hooker, the county received funds from Mississippi Department of Environment Quality, Mississippi Development Authority and the Recovery Reinvestment Act.
"I am so glad that the supervisors moved forward with this project and remained stern in ensuring that the government kept its promise to the people," said Carter.
Greenbriar Digging Services LLC of Brookhaven will perform the work for the sewage system.
The project is set to continue for the following 180 calendar days.

The Resource Center has all the info you'll need From content to user feedback, the resource center has the information you need for every level of the entrepreneurial process.
It looks to be a fairly quiet week on Capitol Hill. Members of the House are out of town, back in their congressional districts for a constituent work week. Meanwhile in the Senate, the America COMPETES Act—which funds government research and development initiatives and STEM initiatives—is up for reauthorization and will be the focus of a hearing by the Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee. The health insurance marketplace also gets a look from a couple of committees.
Each day, Innovation Daily checks the pulse of global innovation--courtesy of Innovation America. Here, we take a look at a handful of relevant stories it compiled last week.
The world's largest 1,000 public corporate R&D spenders recently hit a record high of US$638 billion ensuring life-changing innovation at every turn. Or does it?
As the world economy continues to work its way out of the effects of a global economic crisis, countries of all sizes are turning to entrepreneurship to help drive their recovery. In a few short weeks, millions of people will participate in Global Entrepreneurship Week (Nov. 18 – 24) events, activities and competitions in 139 countries—the largest number of countries in the six years of the initiative..
The Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation launched GEW in 2008 – at the start of the economic crisis – to connect aspiring entrepreneurs and others who can help them take the next step in their entrepreneurial journey.
Last week, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) moved one step further in enlarging the pool of capital available to entrepreneurs when it unanimously voted to propose regulations to allow unaccredited U.S. investors to invest in startups and small businesses for equity, as set out in Title III of the JOBS Act. I took a look at reactions to this latest step and how it compares to a couple of other nations on a similar mission.
The pace continues to quicken on Capitol Hill this week with a number of hearings relevant to entrepreneurial development and startups in general. USAID is in the discussion on the future of Egypt and Syria and how it can support broader development (and entrepreneurs) there. Other topics covered by hearings include: a review of the JOBS Act at a year and a half, improving the US patent system, broadband adoption in the US, cyber-security, basic energy research and PPACA implementation challenges.
A pair of reports coming out in the last week point paint a picture of a fairly stable angel investing market in the U.S. The Q2 2013 Halo Reportfrom the Angel Resource Institute and the Q1 Q2 2013 Angel Market Report from the Center for Venture Research suggest that year-on-year numbers were either fairly flat or trending upward slightly.
You can file this under "the impact of networks"--or perhaps more simply, "it takes one to know one." A new paper from the Kauffman Foundation shows that there is a link between knowing an entrepreneur and being one yourself. And while "Getting the Bug: Is (Growth) Entrepreneurship Contagious?" doesn't necessarily suggest causality, it doesn't take a leap of faith to think that connecting the uninitiated to more entrepreneurs would increase the likelihood that they would become entrepreneurs themselves.
Following last week's comments on the Global Entrepreneurship Research Network, I offer a second and final post on matters arising from the government-convened entrepreneurship summit in Kuala Lumpur. The roundtable discussion among "startup policy" experts on October 12 signaled a new chapter in knowledge creation around how governments can better enable their startup communities.

This group is dedicated to advancing innovations that focus on improving patient care with the active involvement of Patients, Physicians, Nurses, Administrators, Engineers, and even Lawyers. If your interest is in improving the practice and performance of medicine, than this is the meetup for you.
Eugene Borukovich started the New York Health Innovation Group in 2008. Not long after he affiliated with the Health 2.0 organization and became the first local chapter of the new conference company Our chapter has since grown to become the largest healthcare innovation focused meetup in the world, running events that focus on specific topics such as the impact of social media in Healthcare or our Startup pitch contest called "Pitch Yourself into the Shark Tank." The investments, partnerships and collaborations that have come from this meetup are myriad, as we work to foster the genesis, growth and development of innovative technology companies. A few of the companies that have presented: Phreesia, Zweena, ZocDoc, HelloHealth, Medivo, Avado, YourNurseIsOn, DrChrono, ComScore, HealthLeap, MyHealthExperience, Healthrageous, WellApps, and over a hundred more. We have hosted HealthCamp and Todd Park, Bryan Sivak, Regina Holliday, and representatives from every major Healthcare Venture Capital and Angel group in the Northeast. The net result is a community of health innovators, accelerators, venture capitalists, hospitals, doctors, patients programmers, and more with a can do attitude that is changing healthcare every day.
I organize this group as my way of saying thanks for helping my team and I launch FairCareMD in 2010 and MedStartr in 2012...but this isn't about me, it is what our thousands of members, creators and adopters of healthcare innovation can do for healthcare.
Who presents here?
Mostly what we have are the leaders of the NYC healthcare innovation scene. By putting us all together in one place, we are creating the future of healthcare and making New York the healthcare innovation capital of the world.
We are always looking for start-ups and individuals to present the ideas or products they are passionate about. Please be welcome to join the conversation, propose a topic, or suggest an alternative format. We are a largely user-driven group, so suggest a topic and we will do the most popular event.
We also enable more established companies to get their message out to the healthcare innovation community through sponsorship and speaking. So if there is an event, challenge, or product release you would like to talk about, please contact me.
Thanks for visiting, we hope to see you soon!

Personalized dog collars create an added level of safety for your pet. As long as their collar is on, their information is available to strangers.
Many of our dog collars with name information show the engraved or embroidered letters on the back or scruff of your dog, making it easy to read from a distance. Plus, a custom dog collar will look great on your dog.
A personalized dog collar eliminates the need for an ID tag hanging from your dog's collar. You could still pick out a funny dog ID tag to show off your dog's personality, but you don't need to rely on it to show potential finders your contact information.
We have custom identification collars for small and large dogs in a wide variety of choices. The hardest, but most fun, part will be choosing which one to add to your cart!
There are a few factors to consider when you're shopping for a new personalized pet collar.
If so, we suggest going with a waterproof collar. Some of your choices include our soft grip collars, the reflective and camo ScruffTag colors and the reflective engraved collar. With a waterproof collar, you won't get that stinky, wet collar smell after playing in the water.
A leather collar is an option for water-loving dogs as well, if you take regular care of it using leather conditioner. Our spokesdog, River, wears a Signature Leather Collar. He's at the lake all summer and it does a good job of repelling water as long as he's not in the water for hours on end.
For a classic look, consider one of the personalized leather collars for dogs. They come in a range of colors with engraved nameplates for your pet's information. If you want more of a designer look, check out our nylon collar options.
We have personalized pet collars with engraved or embroidered information in various places. Some have engraved buckles, some have engraved nameplates and others have engraved ScruffTags. Consider how visible you want your dog's information to be on the collar when making your choice.

Gone are the days when only plain or Honey Nut Cheerios were available. Now, there are 9 varieties and counting! Although I have not been particularly impressed with Yogurt Burst, Fruity Cheerios, or Apple Cinnamon, the new Berry Burst Cheerios caught my eye and I decided to give it a try - mostly because it's relatively low in calories with each ¾ cup serving providing only 100 calories. Also, I liked the fact that there were actual freeze dried berries included in the mix, rather that just the "flavor" of berries.
What I got was an excellent cereal, which worked well with added skim milk, or as a stand alone snack, or when mixed with my favorite vanilla yogurt. The dried blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries are sweet without being overpowering, and the O's are reminiscent of the good ole yellow box of Cheerios. When milk is added, the cereal holds up fairly well in terms of the "crunch factor" and the berries turn the milk a lovely shade of purple (also sweetening the milk in the process). Berry Burst Cheerios is certainly a worthy addition to the Cheerios line.
Each 3/4 cup serving provides 100 calories as previously mentioned, 1 gram of total fat (2% of the RDA), no saturated fat or cholesterol, 170 mg of sodium, 2 grams of protein, 2 grams of fiber and 8 grams of sugar. There are also 14 vitamins and minerals providing from 5 - 50% of the RDA.
Although Berry Burst Cheerios is a little skimpier on fiber than I would like, it suffices wonderfully for a snack when paired with a protein source (such as milk or yogurt). I paid $2.50 for a 10.4 ounce box of Berry Burst Cheerios, originally $3.99, but I had a printable coupon that gave me another dollar off. While this cereal is not packed with nutrients, it's definitely diet friendly with it's low calories and sugar content (even when you change the serving size to 1 cup). It's definitely worth it when on sale.

Consumer News Release
For immediate release - Tuesday, October 5, 2004. Contact Bob Brammer - 515-281-6699.
Iowa has joined federal and multi-national agencies in "Operation Roaming Charge" - a concerted campaign against telemarketing fraud originating both in the U.S. and abroad.
"This is a very important development in the long-running battle against telemarketing fraud, because so many operations have moved out of the U.S. but are still going strong in Canada and some other countries," said Iowa Attorney General Tom Miller. "We can't reach them on our own."
"Operation Roaming Charge" was announced this afternoon by officials of the Federal Trade Commission, the U.S. Department of Justice and other U.S. agencies, joined by the head of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Financial Crime Division and others.
The FTC says telemarketing fraud accounted for about one-fifth of all consumer fraud complaints the FTC received in 2003 and the first half of 2004 - and that it cost consumers hundreds of millions of dollars.
"Telemarketing fraud continues to plague especially older consumers," Miller said. "That means it remains a big problem for Iowa."
The Iowa Attorney General's Consumer Protection Division continues to pioneer strategies to thwart telemarketing fraud - including going after U.S. companies that "assist and facilitate" fraudulent companies operating out of Canada. Miller's office has seized thousands of pieces of mail coming to Iowa commercial mail "drop-box" sites, mail allegedly used by con-artists to build lists of persons vulnerable to telemarketing schemes -- most often older persons.
Last month, Miller's office filed a lawsuit alleging a Phoenix company "facilitated consumer fraud" by enabling deceptive telemarketers to automatically withdraw money from people's bank accounts without the victims' permission or approval. Bank account debiting is the preferred method for fraudulent telemarketers to obtain people's money, according to FTC complaint data for the first half of this year. Almost half of FTC telemarketing complaints (46 percent) reported payments taken by bank account debit, compared to 18 percent by credit card, the next highest category. The Iowa lawsuit against "Teledraft, Inc." was filed in U.S. District Court in Des Moines.
"We are doing our part here to fight back," Miller said. "It is very encouraging to have U.S. and international agencies focusing on the cross-border problem of telemarketing fraud."
Miller encouraged any telemarketing fraud victims to contact the Iowa Consumer Protection Division by calling 515-281-5926 or 888-777-4590 (toll-free), or by writing to the Division at the Hoover Building, Des Moines, Iowa 50319.
Miller said his office is aware of many Iowans who have lost tens of thousands of dollars to telemarketing fraud, and some who lost life savings of hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Miller offered several basic tips to help people avoid telemarketing fraud:
U.S. officials said today in Washington that "Operation Roaming Charge" has resulted in the arrest of more than 100 persons in the U.S. and 35 arrests in other countries. The project involved coordination among many state attorneys general; the Postal Inspection Service; U.S. Attorneys' offices nationwide; criminal, civil and tax divisions of the U.S. Department of Justice; many FBI field divisions; the Federal Trade Commission; the Royal Canadian Mounted Police; and many other federal, state, local and foreign law enforcement and regulatory agencies.

Last summer's weekly event raised thousands of dollars for new equipment for the department. The need for replacements of hose, protective gear and other ongoing needs is always great.

Genie is a chic line of straw hats, woven caps and hair accessories by NYC-based designer Eugenia Kim, who launched her quirky accessories collection after designing a fabulous headpiece to cover up a particularly terrible haircut. Kim was still a Parsons student when she designed her hairdo-hiding headpiece and wore it around Manhattan, quickly catching the attention of boutique owners. These days Kim is known for her men's and women's hats, scarves and winter accessories, which feature innovative shapes, luxe materials, and atypical details. Designs like the Britt headband (a sequined turban), the Leighton boucle trapper hat, and the Lana, a floppy wide-brim style that evokes Kim's Carmen fedora hat, have made Kim a favorite among celebrities like Beyoncé, Sarah Jessica Parker and Gwen Stefani. In addition to her own designs, Kim has collaborated with the iconic hat brand Stetson on a collection inspired by the colorful paintings of American artist Georgia O'Keeffe.
