Thumbs up What do you love best about your Truck?

I'm curious on what is y'alls favorite part of the truck? Most definitely not the seats, since everyone seems to complain about them, I find mine quite comfortable though.

To me I love it overall, but I really enjoy having the center console shifter on the truck and the quietness of the cab, among the spacious interior.

Take care,

David

I love the exterior of the truck. It is unlike any other, and just looks bad ***.

In order with favorite first.

1. Ride and handling quality.
2. Styling (didn't like the "new" 150 at first but now I think the styling has grown on me).
3. Comfort ( includes storage areas, cup holders, dash and controls)
4. (a pleasant surprise) A very quiet and tightly constructed vehicle.

I agree with all of you. What I don't like about it is washing that black paint every other day.

I like the fact I have had that truck for slighlty over a year, I had one paint problem with it but other than that I have been very pleased with it, it gets better gas mileage than I exxpected it to, it is tough as can be, it rides great, tows great, and hauls itself around great. It's black, so it needs washed often but after a year it is still the best lookig truck in the town and surrounding area in which I live.

A black stepside with a chrome rocker panel and lots of chrome everywhere else will do that to ya!

The look, the ride, etc. but what really made me get my truck was the safety issue. Hauling around my two small children in a Ranger made me and my wife nervous. The SuperCab has plenty of room for a car seat and a booster seat plus room left over for other people. Didn't have that room or safety with the Ranger.

The Premium stereo- - bass that can be felt! Best factory stereo that I've had. Really great radio reception too.

A few things to make of note of....The cruise control is awesome. What an improvement over my '97 f250 HD with no cruise. The auto dimming rear view mirror is killer. I love how the supercab is 6 inches longer than the previous model. People can actually sit back there now. The 8' bed and heavy duty payload package is great for hauling. 4 wheel drive where I don't have to get out of the truck to switch in and out of 4 wheel. The ride is so smooth...it feels like you're in a luxury car almost. Great breaking power much improved over my old truck. True blue with the silver accent is a great color. I call it the blue meanie. Dual air bags. The compass is cool. Heated side mirrors will be great in the winter months. Power adjustable seat. 6 cd changer with great am reception like the previous poster said. I can get 770 AM, Rush and Hannity just about everywhere even in 28 states and parts of Canada. Power windows and door locks that actually all work. What a truck!

Ride and Handling. Without a doubt, the best riding truck I have ever owned.
