New Truck
Well gang, my new 2010 Lariat is built and in transport. I talked to the dealer today and she is on a train coming from Dearborn MI. Right now she is in Ohio and she should be here next week. I plan on taking delivery next Friday or Saturday. I can hardly wait, this will be one of the longest weeks of my life. Of course I will bore you all with pictures when I pick her up and after I bring her home.

Check the news because I heard there was a big fire in a train marshaling yard somewhere in Ohio.

Hello everyone I'm new to the Forum and just wanted to introduce myself. I have a new 2010 F-150 Lariat Supercab on order that should be here in a couple of weeks. My truck is not real fancy, but I had specific options that I was not willing to do without. I didn't want to just take what they had, I wanted it my way. Being a Lariat it's a 5.4 3V with 6 speed automatic. Since I don't plan on towing anything significant. I just got the standard 3.15 rear hoping for better MPG.
I ordered her Ingot Silver with black leather interior. I picked the Captains Chairs because the 10 way adjustable heated and cooled seats are awesome. I love the fact that the seats automatically move backward after removing the key for entry and exiting. I also like the center console and floor shift.
To complete the interior creature comforts, I added the Lariat Plus package and the Sony Premium Sound System. On the outside I added the 20" machined aluminum wheels to give her a better look and stance. This will be the first new car or truck I have ever owned and needless to say I'm excited.
I work for Caterpillar and I'm buying this truck with the X-Plan. Man what a great deal, it's pretty cut and dried on the price with no haggling. You still also receive all bonus's and incentives. It made this truck such a good deal it was really hard to pass up. All the people at the dealership have been a pleasure to work with too.
This truck will be a daily driver (except for the days I take my Harley) and I'm probably going to leave it pretty much stock after the ARE tonneau cover. Maybe some Cat-backs and an air cooler box later. I have already found much information and insight from this forum. Thanks for the help!!
