New car, not a LS but a '13 5.0 Picked it up yesterday. It's an auto. Deep Impact blue. The Iphone pic sucks so I added 2 others to show the actual color. I love it. 420hp and got 26mpg on the way home from Ft. Worth.

I think all the autos get 3:15's...but from about a 20mph downshift into first it broke them loose with the traction control on...so I guess it'll work for now.

I hope Ford made the correct revisions to solve the piston issues that plagued the '11 and '12 engines. It's cool that the '13 5.0 engines received new coated pistons, but its a shame Ford deleted the piston squirters IMO. On the brighter side, the '13 5.0 did pick a few extra ponies because of piston squirter delete. Congratz on the purchase. The '13 5.0 is amazing car.
