New TV - Ecoboost F150 to 6.7 F250
So the time has come to say goodbye to my much enjoyed and much loved F150 Ecoboost, I've recently upgraded to a much larger travel trailer (close to 10k lbs loaded) and it was time to get an appropriate tow vehicle to match. I originally went in looking for a leftover 2013 F250 with the 6.2, none were available locally that came close to fitting my needs or requirements, however they had a sale that fell through on this particular truck and really wanted to move it off the lot. I came in at the right time and ended up paying 19k less than MSRP for this truck including Line-x in the bed, a Bakflip tonneau cover and the paint protection package (was applied for the original purchaser). This truck stickered for 62,300.00$ and it ended up being cheaper than a 2014 XLT 6.2 gasser they had on the lot.
My Father in law was looking for a truck and ended up buying mine for the trade in value so he got a very good deal on his end too, plus i'll still get to see it and drive it every once in a while.
Here's to 2.5 years, 19k km's of towing, 68k km's and zero problems. Great truck, would buy it again.
The new truck is an XLT with the center console, backup cam, tailgate step, remote start and 3.31 gears, otherwise its a real workhorse. The 6.7 puts out 400hp and 800lb/ft and it feels every bit as strong as those numbers suggest, specially while towing my new beast. I look forward to hitting the hills and seeing it perform. Seeing as it is a bit plain, I will be changing wheels and adding a few things, otherwise I'm very pleased with it. no more worries about payload with this setup.
