What is your favorite width for a deck, and why? I've only had 2, 7.75 and 7.8 and i dont notice much of a difference.

anywhere inbetween 7.75 and 8. Any bigger and its to hard to flip, and any smaller and i cant setup right.

8.0 to 8.25.
I feel more comfortable on the board and I just skate better like that, you know, I can do tricks going a lot faster, and my style is a lot cleaner because I never foot drag or speed wobble when I land something going fast.

7.75-7.875
Medium size basically, too thick its hard to flip, too skinny I feel out of balance.

From 8.125 to 8.5.

I kinda want an 8.5 next. I ride "huge" boards because everything else feels like a popsicle stick on my feet. Boards on the bigger end of the spectrum are more comfortable for me.
