New 2019 FTX Owner

Wife and I traded the '15 F150 King Ranch (we did love that truck!!) for this beauty!! Back in the diesel saddle again (although, I really don't need one since all we pull is two motorcycles and there's no snow where we are (forever! lol)...

But we love the aggressive look of the 250 FTX. We test drove the raptor and the Shelby Super Snake (755hp) and frankly, we were not impressed!! So we took this one for a drive and it proved to be what we wanted, albeit, a bit taller than our taste and lifestyle preferences, but we still are very happy with the overall appearance and comfort. We just have to get used to how different it is, that's all. So much taller with that 8" lift. Thanks for listening... ;-)

Yep, we LOVED that part of the higher truck for sure. I've had 250s and a 350 in the past and liked the added height, but this is at the next level! ;-)

Uh...yeah...only slightly.
