Oh Flagstaff, I did it the morning after a 6" snow storm in a rented Crown Vic with bald tires from CA in the middle of January. I never thought about leaving AK in the middle of winter to go check out the Grand Canyon and seeing snow and freezing my butt off...live and learn! Never got the car stuck so that was a plus haha
This is my new truck. I got it on the 15th, it is a 2014 with a 3.5 Ecoboost, 4 wd XLT. I think it will pull my horses, hay and tractors around just fine. This truck replaces my '07 Ranger 4wd I had since it was new and a '97 F 250 Heavy Duty 4wd with a 351 auto I bought for truck stuff beyond the Ranger's capability. 22,500 on the odometer when I bought it, it had the bull bar and bed cover on it and I'll keep them on, the looks of the bull bar and the functionality of the bed cover are growing on me. The only additions I have planned for it is running a cable to the back to power a winch on my trailer, which I took off of my F 250 before we parted ways, I just have to extend the cable and wire it in.

Congrats, looks like you made a fine choice there! I've got the 5.0L in my '13, and don't do much pulling/hauling. But by all accounts the EB is an excellent engine for what you're looking to do

Nice clean truck. Looks like the 157" WB too. Enjoy your new truck!
Edit: sorry I botched the quote! I don't know how to fix it
