Clifford the Big Red Truck, an F150 Story

[Jake]

My thoughts exactly when I was talking to Jake about it. There is for sure a cross over point, but when 15-20+ years?

Anyhoo, nice pick up. Ruby Red is probably one of the best colors on the truck, but I'm a little biased since I already own a F150 in the same. Can't say I'm not jelly though because new truck.

The radar cruise alone got me questioning if I should go the same route or not leasing and all. Only difference heated steering wheel and heated rear seats in options besides the tech. If only the 2018s could parallel park itself and I'd for sure switch.

With the pro trailer backup assist I may wait until 2020-2021 when it can park a trailer on it's own???

Btw, the standard F150 mirrors are very good (I'm sure you know?), did the tow mirrors just come with truck or did you get them added?

Oh, it does parallel park itself. I'm very good at doing it on my own, but Matthew and I tested it in Arlington yesterday and it did a good job. DC makes you learn quickly

Haven't tried the Pro Trailer Backup yet, but from what they told me, you use the knob to set the trailer's trajectory, and then let go of it. The truck should then wiggle everything around and park it/straighten it out. Need to read up on it more.

The tow mirrors were already on the truck and it wasn't going to be a deal-breaker without them - but I do like having them.
