Welcome CubanCigar. I don't see many reviews on the regular 3.5 in the F1. It would be great if you periodically let us know your reviews of the engine. I may get the wife a F150 this summer and that motor is one I have been eyeing.

RainDesert thanks...
As far as my review goes for the 3.5L. I'm very happy with the power that it has with the touch of the pedal. I'm very pleased with the mpg as well for a V6. Prior to this F150, I had a 2014 Nissan Frontier Pro-4X, it was a super sweet looking truck, but the mpg were terrible. I should of just stayed with my old Dodge Dakota V8, instead of the V6 because it got maybe 3 gallons more then the V8.
I do like all the bells and whistles I got with the XLT like heated seats, side mirror dimmers if someone is shining bright lights in your side mirror, and the towing power it possesses. It's a sweet truck. So I hope this general quick review helps your decision making for the wife's truck.

It's getting there Chris, should be starting on the interior pretty soon, I ordered rims for it but will have to wait until next month maybe before getting the tires. All the wiring is done and everything seems to be working so should be starting it soon too..

Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Made it home from the funeral home, cemetery and Petco. Mother in Law yesterday, Daughter In Laws grandmother, (3 of our granddaughters G Grandmother) today. Poor kids have lost both Great Grandmothers in the same week.


We are done for awhile. Can we buy tickets for the rocket ship to the moon yet?

And lets not forget the tax on coffee. East Coast had it's Boston Tea Party, it's time for a West Coast party. So, will it be the "Salem Coffee Party", or will it be the "Portland Expresso Party"?

Are we really paying these idiots to come up with these stupid ideas?
