Anyone besides me....

Just go sit in your truck at the house and not drive it and go “wow”. Eventhough I average about 100 miles a day.

Love that new car smell.

The truck is definitely a looker. I have on a number of occasions come out of a store or other establishment to find complete strangers fawning over my truck. lol

When I pull up to my garage and shut the truck off, quite often I'm still in the truck when the radio times out and shuts off...

I do sit in the truck and go, "Wow!" But lately it's not a positive wow, it's a very negative wow that is usually followed by, "This FordPass app is a total piece of crap!"

One of the many benefits of car, and now I've discovered truck forums too, is it just proves I am not the only one that's wacky about their car or truck. One of my favorite pass times is just sitting in a lawn chair drinking a cold one and admiring what's in front of me. I've only had my new 250 about a month but I bet I've made a 100 laps around it so far just looking.

No,but I look at the outside of it a lot,usually while drinkin' a beer. Kind of like Clint Eastwood did,in "Grand Torino".

Almost matching truck to yours (6.2L and cab lights instead). When the black and chrome are clean, the shine is ridiculous in the sunshine. I just like going out at night "looking for a pen" just so I can open the door or turn on the bed lighting and turn on the "Christmas tree". Ok, we're all odd. I don't think the rest of society understands....

Had mine 5 months and with only 1500 miles on it I find myself sitting in it sometimes still trying to figure what ****, button or switch controls what.

I’m with you. I’m either looking at this forum or some other web site planning my next accessory or upgrade purchase. I love those black trucks.
