Very nice. I have a lot of time invested in the heads on that truck.

What sort of goodies did you get inside? Any interior shots?

2008 Panther Black Metallic G8 GT * Sold 6/10/14*
Thanks guys!!! We're loving it so far. It's super nice, but like you said, 2girls, wouldn't trade the G8 on one, lol.
What I love about this particular white is that it is the Platinum White Metallic, which gives it the Pearl look, the Oxford White just screamed "Work Truck" to me......But yeah, black would look sweet, too. But what the wifey wants, wifey gets, lol.
Oh really? Do tell.
Thanks! The only thing we did not get was Navi and a moonroof. Has the SYNC software, tow package, heated/cooled front seats, leather, yada yada. And the back seat has more room than most BIG cars. I would've LOVED to get the Lariat Limited, but we didn't wanna pay another 80-100 bucks a month for it, ya know.
What really impressed me was how well it runs. Gotta love turbos. I watched the torture test videos on Ford's website and was amazed that it survived what they put it through.
I'll try to get some interior shots tomorrow.

Nice truck man. Love the ecoboost motor. Give it a little time they will have a tune that adds a ton of power(like the taurus) . I think an ecoboost explorer is in my wifes future.

THAT is an AWESOME mill... It should give you years of reliable service!

Gotta love the torque! I used to take dealers for rides in the new F-150 Ecoboost before it came out to the public. I would tell them to pull out on the road, straighten it out then mash the throttle, right then the salesperson was sold! We would also hook up a trailer and tow a Mustang around and everyone loved the torque. I would get 21 mpg driving it.
Overall a nice truck, but the seats would make me uncomfortable after 200 miles, seat bottom seemed too short.
Enjoy!
Congrats. We are car shopping for my wife right now. I told her new 5.0 or F150 to pull my 5.0...lol
She looking at new 4runner...
2014 Harley Davidson Street Bob-Vance and Hines Short Shot staggered.
2013 F150 Ecoboost- Loaded and stock.
A tow vehicle would be nice, lol. Ought to have her test drive the F150(with the ecoboost, of course), if you haven't already. But then again, a new 5.0 would be nice, too. ... Good luck with the shopping!

Nice truck! John is looking to trade his 06 F350 on a new F350. He'd have to order it since none around here with what he wants on it and in his color.
