Just picked up a new 157"wb 2016 F150 Lariat 2.7 EB. Traded my 2012 157" Lariat 5.0.
Now sporting 116 miles.

 

That's a good looking truck!

 

Congrats! Nice looking truck.

 

Nice truck

 

I really like those wheels!

 

Nice 2016!! I'm a big fan of the 157" wb f150's.

I have to have the 6.5 bed for work but honestly I like the way the 157's look over the 145's with this new truck.

The wheels are 20's with Michelin's. Ford did well.

The metallic white paint is insane.

The wife nearly had a stroke when I told her I was trading. She LOVED the 2012. (Me too!) She admitted this ones much nicer.

Thanks to all.

 

Looks really nice!

What are your thoughts on how the 2.7L compares with the 5.0L?

 

Hard to completely say this early. No doubt I think the 2.7 is going to have plenty of grunt for my driving style and potential needs. Just a 1/4 tank into ownership the 2.7 is showing 23mpg on the lie-o-meter. The sound isn't as pleasing as the 5.0 was but it's not bad.

 

Sharp truck!!

 

Looking good. Same colour as mine but I have different wheels and the blackout look as mine is a sport edition lariat with a 5.0

 

I spent the morning going though the dash apps and "my view" changing and rearranging things. I'm not to bad of a tecky and worked my way through it. I still need to figure out the voice navigation etc. I can't imagine how somebody that struggles with technology could figure it all out. I even managed to get the door openers talking to my doors. That was a hoot. I drove it over to get some breakfast this morning and it seemed to clear a heavy frost off the windshield quicker than the 5.0 did. I suppose I could have used the remote start but I'll reserve that for REALLY cold days. I've never been one to do much warm up unless it's pretty nippy out.

Up to 130 miles......

 

No reason to reserve the remote start for cold days...even when it's cool out, it's nice to get into a rig that's got a warm seat. First world problems and all....

 

Nice to get into a cool seat when it's hot also...... (I use the remote start regularly).

 

Agreeded. A cooled seat on a hot day is 100% better than a warm seat on a cold day....
