New Pickup today!!!

After almost three weeks we finally got everything Lined up and got the new pickup today for the second time this year after an accident with my 2016 F350 she only had 7500 miles on her when we had to part ways. Everybody was ok that was the important part. The 17's are night and day different. Stuck with the 6.2 XLT Crew. Had them hang some running boards and but some KO2's on here looking pretty good might be a level kit in store in the next few months.

Polaris sportsman 570 was strapped in the back when collision took place and it rolled over the side of the bed the ramps ended up standing on end against the cab. Both were totaled.

Great looking truck!! Really like the Magnetic!!! I only opted for another color to get the lighter interior which is not available with magnetic. But, I like every magnetic I see. I just sold my 2006 F150 that was Charcoal Beige Metallic. Very close to Magnetic.

I had a 2016 6.2 as well and traded it for a 2017 6.2 XLT, but for very different reasons that you and I am glad everyone is okay that were in the accident.
I agree with you that the 2017's are a completely different ride and feel. I have just under 5000 miles on mine and like it more every day. Congratulations!

We live by Lexington. Dealer told me that I would notice that it would ride better but of course I didn't believe him but he was right after a day on the same roads I drive down every week it rides and behaves better than the half ton RAM I had after the accident for a couple of weeks. So far I'm loving this pickup.

Yeah, that was me, too. Everyone told me how much better the '17 was, and I'm thinking "How can that be? My '14 is great!" But, they were right.
