Updated w/ Pics : New Ecoboost!

Well since we sold off our toys and won't be going back to a slide in camper we decided to snag up a fully loaded Ecoboost FX4, every option ya could pick and it still has a 1540lb payload.

With X-Plan pricing we got 10k off MSRP off a left over 2013. Really excited could never get the 6.0 over 12.5mpg and it was starting to show its age. The drive home up through the mountains netted me 16mpg, with 43 miles on the truck. Can't wait to see how this truck does long term. I'll be posting pics later today!

    Congrats on the new truck. I see that you are located in Alaska, where at? We are planning to move up next year. I'll be in the market for a new truck then and I'm weighing the options of gas vs diesel and whether to buy before we leave or wait until we get there. I know Alaska has no state sales tax, just wondering how prices compare to the lower 48.


    I live just outside of Anchorage. I would shop around while you are down there. They have some good incentives and like I said they came off about 10k from the MSRP on my truck. Had them price out a 2014 as well and they came down 9k on that one. I just had a list of things I wanted in my first "new" truck and this one had every option and a little more.
