Thread: New Ride

  1. #1

    Default New Ride

    Been busy lately...

    I traded my '07 Mark LT in about a month ago for this





    Its a 5.0 with 3.73's. With only 1000 miles on the clock its already knocking down about 2 mpg better than the 5.4 around town and on the highway.

    Yes sir. You have a very proper Ford driveway.

    As much as I like the Mark LT, that's a sweet F-150.

    Thumbs up to ya.

    Nice looking fx4! I just picked up a blue flame stx supercab with the 5.0... the 380 ft/lbs of torque does pretty good moving these heavy trucks.

    I have yet to tow anything, but I have no doubts it will yank anything around without an issue. This engine is pretty stout, and without the bs issues the ecob00sts have. The truck runs really good for being as heavy as it is.

    Ver nice truck! The 5.0 trucks have very good power. Ecoboost is alright, but it still a V-6 and it sounds like one!
