My Platinum Pics
OK, a photographer I am not. And with the drizzly weather, this is the best I can do for now...
It's truly a phenomenal vehicle. Once the weather clears I will get some interior shots, as I believe that is even better than the exterior. The Sony NAV and moonroof make for a sweet ride.
Yes, I know, no trailer tow mirrors. When I was picking through options in May, they weren't on the choice list...

I like the blue color on this truck! I now have over 3700 miles on my Lariat. No problems yet. Great truck. Enjoy your new truck!

Good to see you got it man. Looks nice. You will end up loving it more and more as time goes on. What you think of them power running boards? People double take the truck because one sec it has a step next second it's gone lol.

Love the power boards. I run about 325 lbs and they stand up to me and one of the kids at the same time. The power out is controlled through the message center on the dash (INFO SETUP RESET buttons above the NAV)
Well worth the extensive wait!!!

Congrats on a great looking truck. The more I see of these 09 F-150's the more I think I'm gonna have to go test drive one even though I won't be in the market for a new truck for at least a few years. Oh, and the blue was a very nice choice!

Sorry, away from electronic communications for the weekend...
Yes, power and ride is excellent. I did notice a lot of downshifting at higher speeds, but it had plenty of pedal and very good acceleration. Very smooth ride, even on small county rock roads, very minor wind noise (nothing compared to my diesel Excursion), handles well with the big Pirellis, love the center shift and console, and, yes, that is a 2" front leveller. Got to get the headlights adjusted now. Added a Weatherguard in-bed box, Xtreme spray-in liner, front window tint, and need to grab some type of bed cover this week... The NAV/Sony is a must.
