sranger Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Well after months of thinking about it ( And bugging a few of you about it) I finally decided on my next company Vehicle. It is a: 2011 For F150 4x4 Lariat SuperCrew Cab ( Black/Adobe Interior) Ecoboost 3.5L 3.55 Limited slip diff Angular Step Bar Moon Roof Sony 6-Disc Sound system Lariat Plus Package Bed Extender Tailgate Step Heated/Cooled Seats Two Tone Paint I put about 150 miles on it today. I could not believe the 17mpg average ( From the obviously happy Dash read out) I got in mostly stop and go traffic. This thing rides great, is very quite and actually get reasonable gas millage for a big truck. I really wanted a Raptor, but the extra cost and low gas millage kind of ruled it out of being a practical daily driver. I also seriously though about a 2012 Edge Limited and a BMW X3, but at the end of the day I am a Ford Truck kind of guy....( It is hard to get used to a big truck again after the Edge ) Ford has about $4000.00 in rebates on the F150 right now and I got it for about $600 under invoice using my XPlan and a little creative math on the trade. I am going to add a spray in Bead liner and a hard bed cover. ( Any suggestions are welcome.... ) On a side note, I was given $18,000 (The paperwork trade was higher to make X Plan work) trade for the my 2007 AWD Edge SEL Plus. I love seeing a Ford retain 56% of it's purchase price after 4years.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MY93SHO Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 One of the salesmen at the local John Deere dealership got an F150 EB as his company truck. They were driving Dodges previously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
