Thanks folks for the kind words. I was driving a '15 F150 with the 3.5 ecoboost.....sort of hated to see her go.

I doubt I'll do any mods to this truck for now. I'm towing an airstream and simply wanted a beefier truck to do it with.

Maybe put a tonneau of some sort on it, but I'd have to figure one that I can throw bikes up on top some how.

Would talk more.....but I'm going out drivin'

I ran pretty close to a tank out of this thing today, the onboard 'puter said 14.7 mpg. It was in some rather hilly terrain west of Chambersburg, PA, around Bedford to Johnstown, PA, then back over to Harrisburg through Lewistown, all kinds of roads, even some highway travel.

Bugs all over the front end and windshield now

The Ruby Red is starting to grow on me.... But I think the While gold with Caribou two-tone is still my Favorite. But that sure is a nice looking truck, Congrats!
