    I have a 2017 Crewmax Limited 5.7 ffv. I always burn non-ethanol gas. Since this is my first FFV should I burn e85 or stick with non-ethanol??

    I have used nothing else but someone told me since its a FFV I can burn anything and it wont matter I don't believe him. lol its only .25cents higher here in Southern Louisiana at a nearby station so I will stick with non-ethanol I put it in my trucks, boat, 4wheeler, weedeater, mower etc.

    im in a little town called Sorrento its in between New Orleans and Baton Rouge but way closer to the B.R. I was in one of the Parishes (ascension) that lost 50percent of houses during the flood. I live in a big sub division called River Ridge so I guess they named it correctly because I had no water at all. I personally knew and helped several of my friends who lost everything but the clothes on their backs.

    yeah I got stuck down there for two weeks as I was moving up here. Couldn't leave my family and friends hanging without doing what I could.
    I got off lucky, had most of my belongings moved out already and was already gutting the floors to put new ones down when the flood hit. Only got a couple of inches but some of my family and friends weren't so lucky. Just a bad situation all around but we're alive and that's what matters!

    No sorry. Gonzales!! right down the street. I live next to Pelican Point. Crazy! I had my house built in 2010 I was in Garyville before that. I work for the USDA grain analyst for the Export ships that go overseas. I mainly work in the Reserve area. Are you still in Louisiana?

    Pelican points where my aunt and uncle live! Y'all didn't get hit there hard at all. Seemed to be mostly on the other side of the tracks.
    I moved up to Memphis last month. I'll be up here for another two years. Wife's getting her fellowship done at St Jude's but right after, we coming back home!!

    It's a pretty cool place, I won't argue with that! I'm still learning my way around here! I'll definitely check that out!

    Good deals, horrible service from my experience. I got my current tundra at all star right before the old woman's hospital. I got a damn good deal and needed a truck right then, price was right so didn't argue!

    I have stock exhaust. Never got into the "sound" mods. Honestly, this is the first truck I've gotten around to modding so it's still early!! LOL

    Never getting another truck without lining up a mild suspension lift, bigger and better tires, tint, and a few other cosmetic additions I've grown accustomed to!

    I bought the 2wd this time. im originally from Missouri where you needed a 4x4 ive been here 10 years and only time I used 4wd was when I was mudding back of the levee in Darrow. I had all my windows tinted I do that to everyone. and always put on a K&N CAI cant tell the difference in Mileage but the throttle response and sound are incredible! My sister and one aunt and cousin live here my dad lived in Metairie for 15 years I know almost everything about this place now. I have always been an LSU fan. I go to most of the baseball home games my Brother in law has season tickets. I will never leave here! other than all the democrats its a great place to live lol

    I probably saw you at some of the games!!
    Yeah, I've never really needed a 4x4 except a handful of times! My wife's family is from Kenner and Metairie, mine is from Baker but moved to Gonzales when I was a kid. I love the fact that I've lived in more than one state (south Florida, Maryland, and now Tennessee) but I can't wait to set roots down back home! It's truly a great place to live, and I steer clear of the libtards (stupidity, unfortunately, isn't a good reason for assault or reasonable discharge of a firearm........damn)
