New Ride

Last October I ordered a new F150, Platinum fo replace my 2019 F150 work truck.. Well,It came in last Thursday and I picked it up Saturday.... Its the 2022 Platinum F150 , 4x4 , 6.5' bed, 5.0...

Its a nice riding truck, it will be close to a grocery getter as my 2020 F350 is the REAL Work truck.. I will put some miles on this one, about 25k a year, 3 year lease and start over....

    Congratulations. Took 5 months for mine to arrive also. 2022 F150 KR CC FX4 long bed 3.5EB. Love it. Sold my F350 KR CC FX4 LB 6.7 after selling our 5er. Just in time. The F150 gets 3 mpg better fuel mileage than the F350 and diesel is running $1.40 per gallon higher than gasoline around here. That’s significant.

    That is a great looking truck, inside & out!

    Adding 25K miles per year...amounts to a lot of groceries purchased! :)

    Very nice truck, the Ford dealers near me have zero trucks on the lot.

    If your travels bring you to CNY on biz, let me know. Ice tea sounds good.

    The dealers around here have the employees park up front, to make it look like they have cars....
