Hold off if you can until 2015 models come out. Check out new F150's.
New light weight F150 with Alum. alloy body cutting 700LBS. Choice of 4 engines from 2.7 and 3.5 Eco's, re-aspirated 3.7 standard six and a very reliable 5.0 V8. The 2.7 is new and the 3.5 is basically retuned for better pulling and gas mileage. I am thinking the Eco engines will be at or around 30MPG with increased max towing and more torque without the need to go diesel. I try to keep my trucks 8yrs or longer and when I buy I look for these bench marks.
