Finally got a vehicle I WANTED.
OK, I have always gone a milder route for my vehicles, meaning I've settled. This time I didn't, I finally got the truck I wanted...and I got a great freaking deal.
Sure, gas prices are going up...what the hell, now I have something that will reliably tow my boat and can take to the mountains. Good times...2010 model....

Nice truck!
Very good choice. Which engine did you get? The turbo V6 or the 5.0 V8? I have a 2012 F150 4x4 w/5.0 engine. Really great power and it is more efficient than my '06 F150 with the 4.6 V8!

Yeah the 20120 has a 5.4. It rolls down the highway and I cannot wait to see how it pulls my boat....I suspect with ease.
Really, the thing is immaculate and this is definitely high on my list of good memory days.
