Today, high trim level trucks are incredibly luxurious, but that hasn't always been the case.

Tell me about it; going from an 02 super crew to a 2018 super crew.
Bigger, lighter, and 145 more hp, 26 cubic inches larger at 307 395 hp, 10 speeds and.... now 20mpg vs the old 14 mpg smaller 3 speed OD motor..
The old gal did a heck of a job until I retired her at 321,000 miles still running fine.

Our '98 F150 50th anniversary Lariat 4x4 is special order and probably 1 of 1. Bright red, regular cab, 4.6 V-8, manual transmission, manual transfer case. At 202k miles considering swapping to 2.7 eco, but maybe just swap the transmission to the auto.
