My Black Friday purchase :-)

[PDenbigh]

'07 F150, Extended Cab, Short Bed, Lariat, 5.4 (~365 lb-ft!) truck. Then, Alison and I promptly drove it 200 miles through snow, ice, curves, and mountains, thus why it's a little dirty in the pictures.

Pros:
It'll take me a little while to get used to it and be able to drive it like the tan one, but it really is a nice truck. It has a firm, responsive ride, the steering resistance is perfect, it hauls ass up the mountains, and it stops well too. Automatic climate control is sweet, steering wheel controls are an unnecessary but fun feature, integrated sat radio eliminates a gadget from the dash, and the power seats fit well.
3.73 rear end, big V-8, trans and oil coolers = tow much better than my other truck.

Cons:
I'm not a fan of the 20" wheels just because tires are expensive and limited.
The PO ordered it without the limited slip rear end. It needs LS. That's a big bummer. 3.73's, 365lb-ft torque = tire smoking machine.
Also, the PO ordered it without the sliding rear glass. Bummer #2.
Drive-by-wire is a little different in terms of throttle response. No necessarily a con, but a "Get use to it" thing.

It's no secret I'm a Ford guy. I think they really have the best truck out there. A drive in this thing across snowy, twisty WV roads just furthers my dedication to the brand.
