My 2013 F150 Lariate

I've been wanting a truck for a very long time but I could never afford one. Well we went out yesterday and traded in my Fusion on one. I'm so excited I can't stand it! lol!!

Sorry guys I've been out all day. It's got the 5.0 in it. I've not pushed it too hard yet it only has 68 miles on it right now. It does feel pretty peppy though. Sounds good too! lol!

Sweet! Those are great trucks, from what I have been hearing around here from some owners.

Every Man needs a truck. :burnout:

Beautiful truck! 

I wish I would have bought one of those instead of my Silverado.  But in 2010 when I bought mine, Ford's still had the 5.4.  If I'd only waited a year for the Coyote and Ecoboost to come out.

I was actually gonna buy a new Ram 4x4. They're practically giving them away ($25k for a quad cab 4x4 with the Hemi). Was ready to sign the papers but walked out over $2/month. I told them my max was $500, and I meant it. When i got home they called me and were ready to give me my price, but they made the cardinal mistake in sales: they let me go home and think about it. i decided i really dont need a NEW truck, because i'm too hard on trucks (if i want to drive down a road to go hunting, i'm going down that road, even if it's only 3 feet wide between the tree branches). My old Dakota suits that purpose just fine. Had I bought the Ram it would have been a daily driver (the Sonata would have been traded), which I'd have regretted: Gas gas gone up 15 cents per liter (about 60 cents/gallon) since then. Not regretting walking away... Now my plan is to keep the Sonata another year and then buy a Mustang GT ragtop...

Thanks Guy's! Maybe I need to use spell check a little. lol!! The dealer we bought our 12 Focus from had this and one other Lariat advertised on line for almost 10,000 off msrp. I checked another local Ford dealer and they didn't have anything even close to that. This truck is loaded, the only thing it doesn't have which I really wanted is a power moonroof but I wasn't going to pass it up for that. It even has the remote start built in. After all the add ons we still got it for almost 4,000 below msrp so I'm happy with the deal.

You must want one pretty bad! I've not had it a week yet but I'm lovin it. I just ordered a Bedrug for it to protect the bed. I don't like the plastic bedliners, they scratch the bed too much, these have a nice thick backing on them that shouldn't scratch it. Next on the list is a tri fold bed cover.
