Im not sure why many of you think its a downgrade, Its a difference of seats and 2 consoles 
, this 07 has all the features that the 03 had minus leather seats..
The 07 drives alot better, rides alot smoother, looks newer and its quiter cruising down the highway (road noise)

In one way its a downgrade but another way it isnt..
After owning it for 4 1/2 years i came to the conclusion that its too much work to keep the interior in the condition i wanted it in. Clean clothes to get in, 17 month old son, scratches on the leather, cleaning and conditioning once a month etc.
It was getting close to 145,000 miles and all the traveling we have started to do that mileage was going to go up pretty quickly.. Didnt want to have to worry about transmission, engine problems, front end problems etc..
I drove up to this Nissan dealership and found my 07 with 60k miles, after doing some numbers they ended up offering me a very good trade in amount
(6,500) and walked out the door with the new truck for 10k.
Im going to miss the old girl, she was a good one..

Personally, I like the new truck better. Maybe I'm partial to this generation? Who knows.
Either way, seems like you got a good deal and a much newer truck. Congrats! See you in the 2004-2008 forums.
Some of you give him sh*t like he bought a Chevy or something. It's still an F150!

im not going to hate. i actually almost bought a 2004 lariat supercrew lifted on 37 inch terra grapplers. black leather interior and a sunroof. price/mileage just wasnt right.
good luck on the new ride. any plans yet?

Better looking generation with a better equipment package for an uglier generation with less equipment = downgrade in my book. 
I cant stand how small the front doors are and how large the rear doors are on the 11th gen SCrews. The A-pillars are way too close to the B-pillars. Its out of proportions. I'm glad they fixed this in the 12th gens.
