Back where Im supposed to be!! F150 Family again

Long time absentee here (about 3.5 years). Sold my old 04/ Scab Lariat back in 2013 due long commute to work and it needing new phasers/tensioners, etc...(i do not miss the 5.4 at all other than the sound)

Drove a 2006 4Runner sport for the past 3.5 years until the wife and I recently had our third child. Needless to say, the 4runner was not wide enough to fit three child seats comfortably. Soooooo I sold it and bought a new to me F150 again. I had to go with Oxford white. I REALLY wanted another Lariat, BUT apparently they are a bit out of my price range.

So I picked up an Oxford White 2014 XLT 4x4 Crewcab. Nothing loaded, but I did get the mid range model so at least I got the upgraded wheels, running boards, larger center stack screen, and the electronic locker.

Really impressed with the 5.0 and the sound too! I just couldnt do Ecoboost. I test drove one and just liked the 5.0 better.

Old Truck:

Welcome back! Your ID seemed familiar, then the pic of your old truck helped me remember you. I've been wanting a 5.0L myself for some time.
