I have posted the pics of my 09 XLT in my gallery.

Really pretty truck, except I still do not understand the interior. If this is suppose to be the Flint (Grey) or as Ford calls it on their site now 'Stone Grey' then why is the dash and carpet a real dark brown and the trim is a light tan? I believe they gave me the Camel Tan.

The flip up console is really neat. Down close to the floor is a drawer you pull out for storage and if the flip of the console there is another place you open for storage- great idea.

The ride is real smooth, I have owned 6 F150's and this model year is by far the nicest ride and do not hear the outside sounds like I have heard in my others.

Other then the interior color, I LOVE this truck.

Look at the sticker again. Ford's web URL is ford.ca. You're exactly right.

The sticker says not intended for sale or registration in the us. But it also says federal excise tax. The navigation radio is also only $2300

$60K for a ford f150 with I don't care how many options is absurd. F350 loaded to the gills? Maybe. The difference between a $30K f150 and a $60K f150 is about $3-5K of real cost add ons. Plastic, leather-a few small pieces-some legit electronics, etc. Insane.

Message Center

Does the message center on the dashboard give you avg mpg, distance to empty, oil life and all that good stuff??? If so, what kind of mileage are you getting??

Well so far I do know that I can tell the MPG - at this time I am getting 15.6 and that is just short trip driving. The button that you push to reset trip mileage is where the MPG is and there is a menu section, but I have been sick and have not been able to play with my truck much. I only have 230 miles on it. As far as the other things, distance to empty, etc. I still need to look in the book about all of that or see what the menu list.

I LOVE this truck. I have had 6 or 7 F150's and this one is by far the nicest. It is really quiet, do not hear all the road noise and the ride is really smooth. In addition this truck really has alot of get up and go. I was merging into traffic the other day and press the excelerator and it just took off like a shot. Did I mention that I LOVE this truck????

@ Trill Gear Head, MPG difference is the difference you see in our mpg, Imperial, compared to your US gallon.

4.546 liters per a imperial gallon compared to 3.79 liters per a US gallon.

25 miles per imp gallon = 20.8 miles per US gallon

Btw, at debralj... I'm jealous Nice looking truck

Oh I didn't realize that. That could explain the $60K price tag.
