I drove one!!

[1994 F-150]

I was able to drive a 09 Reg cab 6ft bed XLT 4x4 with 3.55, and 5.4L. My overall impression on it was I really liked it. Interior: Overall seats are far more comfortable than the 04-08 Seats, much more contoured, and the seating postion is very comfortable. The dash layout is very nice and functional easy to use. I really like that when you turn the truck on the cd display says Ford F-150 Built Ford Tough. Nice gauges easy to read and functional, no more Ford green. The only thing I didn't like about it was the view out the back over your shoulder, it was kind of hard to check over you shoulder for lane changes and such. Good stock sound system also, it didn't even have to sony sound system and it was decent. One cool thing was that under the middle seat, the bottom of it flips up and there is a little more storage under it which is nice. Powertrain: Overall the truck feels much more powerful than the previous generation. I would still like a little more low end grunt. Really gets going around 3500 rpms. The transmission seems to be good shifts when needed and just a little different having that many gears to go through. Handling: I didn't really have a chance to corner hard or anything like (really rainy and dark out) But overall from what I could tell was that the truck would handle very good. Exterior: Love the color blue flame is beautiful it also had to silver two tone. I love the box side steps and the tail gate step. The grill on the XLT is very nice looking and I prefer it to the Fx4 grill. They also had an Fx4 Supercab. I have never really been a big fan of the 04-08 F-150's but I really like the 09's it has a lot more power and it all around a nicer truck. Sorry for the lack of pictures but it was dark out and I only had my cell phone anyway. MSRP: $35,xxx
