Well,
I came across a deal and I was 3000 miles from being upside down in my 2009 so traded it in. I got a fully loaded 2011 F150 Lariat SCREW 3.5L Ecoboost. Tuxedo Black on Black interior. 4x4 Off-road Package, tow package, Sony premium Nav/DVD player/Sirius, Backup camera, bed lined, sunroof, heated/cooled leather, power fold mirrors and much much more. They tried to sell me a 2015 but for some reason seeing the front end up close it looked a little off (plus wife really didn't like the new design so I got trumped even if I thought about it LOL). Its been storming here so haven't had a chance to wash and detail her so pics will follow when we get some sunshine. All I can say is DAM she gets up and goes with that Eco LOL. Its a big change from the 5.4L for sure
**Edit Forgot I took a pic at the dealership. Attached it below**
Congrats Trailblazen. Sweet truck you have there. Don't be too surprised if people start telling you they think you black pearl looks green though. I get that all the time with my truck. A 2011 s/cab 5.0 dressed in tuxedo black. Affectionately nick named Black Betty. Again congrats on your new truck. Tseekins Tim can certainly tell you how great that egobooster can really be. And thanks to Tom we know what they can do as well when towing large loads. (I just wish he'd show us what that little Prius can do. )
Hey bud. It's been a while. I am still thinking of a nickname for her. Its all black so was thinking of something like Vader or the Batmobile LOL. Yeah with this thing putting my *** into the seat with every press of the gas pedal I am ear to ear grin. I can't wait to see what it does for towing and I was thinking about putting an exhaust on it down the road to see what it does for more performance.
I totally forgot I had taken a picture the night I signed the papers (was almost 1030 PM when we left)
Mucho congrats brother, she's perty as the dickens!!!!!!

Ahh yes my brother, the egobooster sure has me spoiled me rotten with power and MPG's. In fact today after refueling I had a run with a 2015 Silverado 4x4. Truck had duals so I'll assume she had the 5.3 at least and we all know the new 5.3L was updated for 2015. I felt like a thief in the night showing that poor boy my rear end.
