Why not just go for a 6.7 PSD? With incentives and model year end Ford/dealer rebates, you could get a loaded F350 that will get you better mileage than any of those vehicles, and with with a few pennies in it, will rain coal on all other cars.

You can't go wrong with a diesel.

Lol and no corvettes - truck / SUV

I started this thread because I know once car is back to stock I'm impatient and will move fast so the next week or 2 I have my hands tied and have Alittle time to think haha - not by choice

I think it depends on what your plans are for the truck.

DirtyD 10-26-2012 01:30 PM

I would choose a new F150 then.

But honestly, the 5.0 in an FX4 would be comparable to the Ecoboost FX4.

DirtyD 10-26-2012 01:32 PM

Do you plan on ever using the 4WD if you get it?

Midnight11 10-26-2012 01:37 PM

But LOL @ the comment about "low miles". It's a 6 year old truck with ~72k. That's about average. If it had like 12k, that's another story.

Hopefully it's got some go fast goodies on it.

Midnight11 10-26-2012 01:42 PM

pretty sure thats low miles for a diesel

Agreed. Coming from a country boy, it kind of irritates me how all these frat fags up here throw 6"+ lifts and 35"+ tires on a truck and then laugh when you ask if they've ever wheeled in it, or reply with something about a dirt road.

Do not buy a 4x4 if it will never go off the concrete/asphalt. Get a 2wd. You gain back the power lost from the TC, plus they are typically [numerically] lower geared for better MPG.

I think you should get a regular cab F150 2wd with a 5.0 in it. Easily a Gen 3 Lightning. :D

Roughly 12k/year. That's about avg. Plus, he may have not had the speedo corrected after the tires. Never know.

My dad has a 2001 with ~135k last I checked. And it's been on many road trips.

My truck was a 2001 as well, with ~182k. That's a lot of miles.
