If you want I'll let you know what my MPG is after about a week of back and forth through city driving

tow cap is 11,700 lbs. I forget hauling cap but I'm sure its listed all over the internet. Go to youtube and watch the ecoboost torture test playlist. It sold me the second I watched em.

Cool! Thanks yeah I'm definately leaning towards the new f150 for sure. Sounds like an awesome engine.

A guy I wrk with has the Ecoboost with a bolt on exhaust and it sounds like a bada** with the loud turbo whistle.

Zyklon-SS · 12-18-2011, 07:18 PM

I like it, congrats!

bigted83 · 12-18-2011, 07:22 PM

How much u pay if u dont mind me asking

ROBOSSRS · 12-18-2011, 09:30 PM

At least it's not a fugly Toyota, but I would have bought a Chevy.

goval · 12-18-2011, 09:37 PM

Very nice! I miss my truck! I had a Tundra and traded in for the Camaro; wish i could afford both. The gas was killing me though, since it was lifted.

10CamaroIOM · 12-18-2011, 10:04 PM

Trucks are nice to have. That's one of the main reasons why I go back and forth on getting a Camaro, I don't want to leave my 97.

evan · 12-19-2011, 03:54 PM

I paid well below sticker and invoice for this truck, getting an XLT with ecoboost is much more wallet friendly, but I wanted the appearance of the FX4 and its additional luxury features so I splurged a bit. For the options I got plan on spending mid-upper 30's.

After I get out to WA state the first thing I'm going to do is a leveling kit. In retrospect I wish I wouldve ordered the truck with the factory 20" black wheels. I will wait until someone tries to sell theirs then buy em asap :]

bigted83 · 12-19-2011, 04:14 PM

I love it,makes me wanna trade my car

10CamaroIOM · 12-20-2011, 01:57 AM

You will need to post back when you tow something with it. I'm curious to know how the V6 does with towing. I love the color as well, and the tail lights don't have that chrome trim, but the Raptor style black, nice truck.

midnighter · 12-20-2011, 02:05 AM

Up to now I hadn't realized that it's a V6. Interesting.
