F 100?
Hello Everyone,
I have been looking over this site for any info on the P525/F100 that Motor Trend had an article about a couple of months ago. I havent been active on this site for a few years as I have taken a hiatus from having internet service but am glad to be back so that I can be better informed. Thanks

In an article I read previously, The F100 was being cancelled or at least put on the back burner.
Ford is going ahead with the Ecoboost. Why would anyone need a smaller F100 when the Ecoboost can deliver excellent performance and MPG's in the bigger F150?
I doubt Ford can even afford to build a new F100.

The new 2009 F-150 SuperCrew is over 6" longer then my current 2004 F-150 SuperCrew which means it won't fit in my garage. I simply won't buy a vehicle that I have to park outside! Two friends of mine have found their rims/stereos stolen on more then one occation in their driveways.

I want a truck that can pull a 5000# 20' boat/trailer. The F-100 is reported to have a towing capacity around 7000# which would be adequite for my needs.

I am interested in the F100 and believe that others would feel the same way if the truck was of "Dakota" size and with the towing capabilities that at least I need. My 2000 F150 4x2 with the 5.4 has power, but drinks gas and is hard to park in and around the city where I currently live. I thought that I would like to have a new 150 but these things are mammoth in size. I have a guy that lives in the same complex as I, and parking next to his 4x4 screw makes me feel dwarfed. I no longer need that much truck and would much rather have something that I could trailer my 4 wheelers and not break the bank hauling them. The ranger certainly isn't the answer. Too small and not enough increase in economy to warrant the painfull size.
