I am curios about the 5.0 liter in the lighter trucks, I think its possible to get max tow with this engine now, I still like the 3.5 eco motor though!

I did a walk around on a 2015 Lariat at the Ford dealer my oldest son is a service tech at. I had a chance to play with the new tailgate step too, it's a much better design now. The truck has nice panel gaps and the body panels feel pretty tight too.

At home in my driveway. .....possession is 9/10ths the law right hahaha





That mpg # would worry me

They actually let me have it overnight ......I'm trying hard to fall in love with a new '15 but honestly it just feels like a different new truck than my '13......I'm sure it drives and rides better.......power and speed feels about same......but really the difference is subtle if noticeable at all.....my wife says she likes the '13 better ......don't get me wrong it's a damn nice truck gets a lot of looks going down road but it just doesn't knock me over with its awesomeness especially considering I'm sure it'd be at least a $15k swing in the opposite direction vs just keeping what I got......we'll see

Haven't talked #s .......honestly I'm not convinced I want one.......the absolute truth is I just like it because it's the latest, "greatest " .......but besides all the fluff I don't think it could beat the tar out of the truck I have.......but like I've said before the new and different factor is strong



Ahhhhh good morning hahaha





He likes it!!!! Although for the record he thought i painted the '13 black hahaha and his biggest thing is the interior smell, our '13 still has the new car smell oddly more so than this '15

CuN, now your '13 is the kind I like to get. Y'all keep trading them 2-5 year old trucks and bring the market down for the likes of penny pinching old me.

My truck is going on four years old and I still haven't got the newness out yet. My wife told me the other day that she plans to run the wheels off the Expy.

I ain't mad at her.

Then again, when you've bought 10 new vehicles from the same guy in the past 8 years, they tend to take care of you ...
