The truck that brought me back to Ford!

Having gotten rid of my last Ford 10 years ago (1995 Mustang), switched to a 1999 5.7L 350hp Chevy Tahoe LT since then. Liked that truck (still do) but it is time to let her go.

Been eyeballing the F-150's since 2009 and finally pulled the trigger a couple of weeks ago.

Picked me up a 2011 F-150, SCrew, XLT, 5.0, 4x4, 6.5 Bed, Tuxedo Black. It has the chrome package, rear sliding window, sync.

Mods already:
Spray on bed liner
Weather Tech 2 piece: over-the-hump front and full back floor Mats
Leer 700 Tonneau cover (ordering this weekend)

Congratulations. It's the same as my brother-in-law's. I have the 5.5' bed and the 6.5' bed looks really long to me for some reason.

To me as well. I was looking at a SCrew with the 6.5 bed before I bought mine with the 5.5' bed, perfectly proportioned IMHO. I don't really haul more than a chainsaw or a gas can, occasionally some baseball equiptment, so it works for me. Congrads and welcome back!
