It would take a full page to list all the first-in-class, best-in-class, class-exclusive, and new features that the 2016 Ford F-150 carries.

That’s the reason I selected the F-150 to take me and my wife on a 1,000-mile round trip from Dallas to the Big Bend/Brewster County region of Texas.

This November was the 50th anniversary of the CASI Terlingua International Chili Championship, a chili cook-off celebration held each year near the ghost town of Terlingua.

It was my freshman year in college when I attended the very first chili cook-off. It involved a whole lot of partying, although it was strictly a spectator sport for me. No credentials were needed except a cooler full of ice and some adult beverages. There were plenty of willing participants in doing playful, sometimes stupid, things.

Sharp curves were easily mastered because of superb steering.
