I love F-150s, awesome trucks. I do like the bigger GM truck motors a little bit more but the 5.4L V8 is more than adequate and Ford interiors are better IMO.
Is it a 4.6L?

2006 Ebony Black Crew Cab (5.5' Bed) with the 5.4L V8.. XLT trim with tow package. My Dealer discount 24mo. lease was one payment of $7400 less $2k trade on my 98 Ranger (scrapped the V8 Ranger idea) so it was $5400 out of pocket total.

I'm more of a GM fan, but I rented an '05 F-150 quad cab on vacation last year and was really impressed... Nice truck

Nice, should have got the New England Patriots Championship edition they offer for the F-150 because lord knows the shitty jets and giants wont see a championship for decades, even if they combined both rosters and made one team! J/K looks like a badass truck though, i know id love to have one.

F150s are nice, but are really bad mpg, I have a 1500hd crew cab and get 12mph with 6.0l , My buddy has a 04 f150 extra cab with 5.4l I think and he get 11mpg !

I only go 8 miles a day to work (roundtrip) so I can suffer the MPG.

It kinda grew on me in the showroom (the F-150) and it has "personality"!

BTW..Check out this Z-28 (if I could only justify this to my hunny..)

Either way, nice. I would've taken the truck too.

Ahh yes.. the Zephyr was my first choice, but the lease numbers were better on the F-150. Nicest interior I've ever seen, plus it handles good too.
