New Ride

Well...after 15 great years of service it was time to replace my 2000 F250 SCrew with a new truck.
So here is my new baby and I'm so stoked!!
2014 F150 SCrew FX4 Ecoboost with Platinum interior, 2" lift with 22"s and 33" Nitto's, MagnaFlow cat back exhaust, K&N, etc...
Love this truck!! Good power, mpg and room all in one package and rides so much smoother than the F250.

Beautiful truck! I hope she keeps bringing many smiles to your face for as long as you F250 did.

COOL, nice looking color, I just picked up a 2013 SUPERCAB after driving & passing along to my son, my 27 year old 1987 F150 that I drive off the lot with 33 miles on it, the speedometer gear in the trany wore out three years ago with 267k miles.
What caught I eye was the power plant in the back ground behind your truck or is that refinery, is that where you work?

Some more pics

Here's some of the inside. The upgrade's came on the truck from the dealer. Has a moon roof and all the gadgets...8 way power leather with heat/cool/memory, rear view camera and tailgate step, 700watt stereo etc... The only thing different from the Platinum/Limited is the rear leather seats are not heated. Don't know if thats standard though on the Platinum? Might be a few other things but with all the upgrades it's a little confusing...lol
The Ford dealer in Buena Park, CA (Ken Grody) has their own off road shop so I had them do the lift, wheels, tires, exhaust, retractable running boards and intake, and it's all covered under factory warranty so should have no worries!

Rear heaters are standard on the Platinum and my backseat riders love them.

What you've got is a really nice FX4 with aftermarket power running boards.
Nice truck.
