Big difference
I finally swapped my 2006 F250 V10 for a 2009 F150. While the F250 was a workhorse, the change to the F150 is significant. THis is really a quiet, smooth riding truck. So far the mileage has been very good in the 20 MPG range on the highway. This is quite an increase from the V10 at 13. I can't knock the ability of the F250 as a towing monster, but when you don't need it anymore, no need to pay for the extra gas.
I have always been a Ford man except for a few years I went to GM, but after a GMC lemon, I have been with Ford.
Glad to say Ford has built a very solid truck with this new F150. Also glad to drive one and say thanks FORD for not taking any of my Bailout tax dollars.

You are going to be a very happy man. I traded in the same truck, 2006 F-250, V-10 a few eeks ago. I am amazed at the fuel mileage of 19-21 that this new truck is getting. Instead of filling up a 29 gallon tank twice a week, now only the 36 gallons once a week. No complaints with the new truck yet. I have been driving Fords since 1980 and this 09 is by far the nicest truck Ive ever had.
Thanks, Trueblue12
