Well, I upgraded

Well, my 07 is now gone. I traded it in on a brand new 2012 5.0. So far the new truck has blown me away. I wanted to thank everyone on this forum for being so helpful, I learned a lot. The 04-08 forum seemed very "mature" also. I will still be visiting and look forward to seeing the progress on some of the great trucks you guys own. Thanks again!

I looked at one with the 6.2 the other day. If my truck didn't have so little miles and I hadn't just put new tires and lift on my truck, it would have been hard for me to walk away from it.

Looked at a XLT Ecoboost last week. I was surprised by the performance and level of refinement. The promise of better fuel economy is very enticing in itself.

The torque, fuel mileage and 6 speed tranny on the EcoBoost are all enticing to me. Maybe in a couple of years. I've only put 50000 miles on my 06 so far. I'll wait and see if there are going to be any major problems before I take the plunge.
