My new daily driver/ tow hauler

Hey guys, I am new here from Texas. I recently traded in my 2011 mustang v6 for a 2011 F150 Ecoboost Texas edition. I am in love with the truck. I already have matched the tint all the way around and sprayed the be with rynolining. I dont have any update pics, but here is the pics from when i bought it!!!

And engage it BEFORE you take it out of gear/foot off the brake. Otherwise the weight of the truck is already against the tranny.

Nice truck, same color as mine.

Nice truck. Where are you in Texas? I notice the grass is green, so you can't be anywhere near us in San Antonio!

Welcome and congratulations. Nice truck. You going to scrape that dealer sticker off the tailgate? I hate it when they put those on there.

Nice....what extra's does the Texas edition give you. Is the Texas edition a dealer or factory installed package?

I am not sure exactly what extra it comes with, I think it's just a XLT with some things here and there, and i think its a factory install package

I bought a 2011 mustang v6 for a daily driver because my 1992 mustang was being worked on. The original plan was to get a truck cause i need a truck all the time. When i traded in the mustang with 18k miles on it, i got what i owed on it so i didnt loose out at all.

Nice Truck. I test drove the sterling grey but finally chose the platinum white in a Lariat. Texas here too... over in Arlington. I really am enjoying the Eco Boost driving around the metroplex... great for merging!
