Thoughts on F-150's?

[GRADS]

I'm sitting at Ford right now waiting for my F-350 to get out of the shop and I'm staring at a $5000 bill. Thank god for warranties...it only cost me $190 out of pocket. My rental car was an F-150 and I kind of liked how it was a much smoother ride and it was easy to park. While here at Ford I was checking out the new F-150's with the Eco Boost motor. I guess they have a 11,300 lb. towing capacity! Does anybody have any experience with these? My truck is out of warranty in a couple of months so I might have to trade it in.

Grads, I had a rental F-150 4x4 crew cab with ecoboost for entire summer of '11. Awesome vehicle and got 20mpg hwy unloaded at 75 mph. It did have the tallest gearing though, 3.21:1. I think a F-150 with shorter gearing would be super for towing a medium size Daytona in your area. If I was towing the same in 110* weather I would keep your F-350 with diesel.

If you're looking for good mileage, don't get one of these

Personally I like the 6.5' bed vs the 5.5, most of the ones on the lots crew cab are 5.5'

What did they sublet? Does that mean they took your truck somewhere else? And if so,ndid you know about it beforehand? I've had the cab off my F350 twice and never received a bill like that. I'd love to see the labor codes to see what the book time is on that job.
