Well for now anyway. Some are tracking already from Facebook. I traded my vette in on a new f150 fx2 ecoboost. Fully loaded truck. I did for few reasons. But mainly cause I want to get another bike. This time a street glide. Can't have 2 toys. Lol. Plus vette was going to be my biggest money whole yet. Besides that needed the room for when we travel and the truck delivers.
I will get another car in few years. Nothing new but something like a fox body or f body.
On side note my bulldog is happy cause he gets to ride with me again. Lol

It's always good to be done with cars.
Then you can start fresh.....

Been debating on the same thing once i get the c6 up and going again.
Nice truck, i've worked a 2 ford dealers as a writer and there is a few common issues on those ecoboost trucks.

I've seen the issues. From what can find seems they was with the 11-12. Then ford fixed stuff.
I knew if I got the 5.0 f150 it would get modded. Right now no plans on modding at all.

I will have something in like 5 yrs or so. But it will not be a street car. Lol

From what I have seen it take more then tune and cai to get low 13s high 12s. Fadtest ecoboost runs 12.7 and has tune, exhaust, cai, bigger intercooler, and 50 shot of spray.

Ive been considering a loaded Focus ST3 white.. The payments would be laughable if i sell the G8... I am going back for my Bachelors and the mpg would be nice.

Fx2 ecoboost is sick but $$ and mpg is weak vs a little hatchback

I have a 2010 F150 and love it. Congrats! I have the old 5.4 ltr V8 and it is lethargic. I am researching mods daily to see what I can do and wish I had gotten a newer one with the ecoboost or 5.0.

Places around me are doing the ecoboost f150 for 29k... Looks like the crazy premiums for trucks may be slowly dropping....
