Well, after enjoying the Raptor for a year, I thought I'd take advantage of the market and trade it while the resale is at it's peak.

Just picked up my new 2015 F-150 King Ranch FX4 3.5L EcoBoost a couple days ago.

It's amazing how much technology and features the new trucks have. So far, my favorite things are the glass roof, remote tailgate, massaging seats, and radar adaptive cruise control.

The Active Park and Lane Keeping are also really cool features, though I don't see using either of those very often. The 360 Camera system is also really cool, but I'm still getting used to using it when I'm backing into a space.

The truck is super quiet and you can really feel how much lighter it is compared to the previous body style. So far mixed driving is averaging 17.2 MPG (only 200 miles on the truck so far). I will say the ride on the Raptor was better, and I liked the more bolstered seats in the Raptor better than the seats in the new truck. Aside from that, I love it!

 

DAMN!! That's beautiful!! my fav color combo!

 

I'm in the same boat as you, thinking about trading in my 14 Raptor because of the trade values being so high. How did you fare on your trade if you don't mind my asking.

 

Sent you a PM.

 

I'm also trading in my Raptor for a new F150. Do you know if the back seat rubber mat will fit in the 2015? I'm thinking the cabs (Super Crew) are the same shape/size.

 

First post, I just traded my 11 Lariat for the same White KR just left out the park assist and adaptive cruise. These 15's are a big step up from my 11 which is a very good truck.

My gripe on these 15's is the inadequate 23 gallon stock tank for my needs.Had to get the 36 gallon so I could tow my boat 210 miles without a re-fuel. The 26 gal. on my 11 was OK but 23 no thanks.

Now is the time to buy if you can't wait for a 16.

My antenna dings the top of my garage header and hits the door as I pull in so I am gonna get a shorty one for 15-20 bucks and will avoid anything but a hand wash or brush less car wash.
