Found a screw with this pkg and ecoboost near me with 27,000 miles. Price is $27k. XLT pkg and XTR pkg with rubber floors! :CDecent price? I've been out of the market with regards to prices and it seems decent price wise. Was a lease return from a contractor. Drives nice and really goes with 3.73 gears.

Could be good, pull a KBB and NADA on it. Only you can decide if you plan to tow with it, 3:73 gears are not that conducive to much towing, good mileage empty but wouldn't tow much in the hills/mountains. You will get overwhelming amount of opinions on that.

If I were in the market for a late model F150, I'd also be looking for one with the Max Payload package in addition to the basic trailer package.

Finding both packages together is hard. Sort of like finding a F250 with 4.30 gears.

Most come with 3.55s or higher. 3.73 also is the gear for the max tow 150. You can get a 4.10 in that year. IF you could find one. However. the tow rating for the 4.10, is higher than the 3.73 with the same engine. How do I know? I have the Ford towing guide right in front of me.

I was pulling a 7,500 lb. 5th wheel and it would pull it as good as my 2016 Superduty Powerstroke pulls a 14,000 lb 5th wheel with a 3:55 ratio!

3.73s in that truck are perfect for towing. With today's torque and transmissions, 4.10s etc are no longer needed. Not many "mountains" in WI.

Sounds like a nice truck. Take a look at the door sticker for payload. If you go ahead and get it consider LT tires when the time comes to replace the originals. That engine and the 3.73 has all the power you will need.

I like the 2011-2014s.

Good luck,

My HD F150 came with 3.73 gears. It hasn't slowed down on steep grades yet.

Love mine! The 3.73's do hit the mileage numbers a bit. I've never averaged >20mpg. When in the sweet spot, I can average 19 over a long trip. But...then again...I didn't buy it for efficiency. I bought it to tow, and I don't believe another half ton will do as well.
