Trading my F-150 in Tomorrow
I've been a member here since 2002; when I bought my first F-150 new, suoercab with 5.4.
Traded it in for a 2012 Screw with Eco boost….2 years later traded it in for a 2014 FX4 screw with 5.0, 6 inch lift from the dealer and its been an amazing truck but I think in my old age, I want a plush and easy to drive SUV.
Tomorrow I'm picking up my brand new 2018 Explorer Sport.
Hopefully I can still post here without a truck :~)

Considering where yer at and the driving conditions you'll be in doing inspections, I doubt an Exploder is going to work. You'll know better than any of us. If you haven't looked at the Platinum series F150 in a 4x4, talk about plush. But then it also carries a hefty price tag but it all but wipes yer nose. I do have a lady friend that has the 2018 Exploder Sport with the 3.5 EB engine. It doesn't get the published gas mileage but then she drives like she stole it. She's managed to wreck it twice now. The all wheel drive is no replacement for 4x4 according to her. She lives on a ranch around the Boerne area if you know anything about the area. It's just Texas Hill Country where most folks don't need 4x4, just a good locking rear axle will take you most anywhere.

Now if you just want to stand out.....what am I saying, if you want to be normal, for you anyway, take a look at a FTX. If you watch any of the Duck Commander stuff, this is what Willie drives. It's a full on custom luxury F150. You'll probably be the only one in Alaska with one. Never know, one of those gold miners just might offer you a lot more than what it will cost you. We have oil rich ranchers here that do that. They get money drunk and if they want it, there's no price too high. Sometimes the more ridiculous the price the more they want it.

Now 'ya talkin!! I did the same thing last year but came out with a 350 DRW to pull our camper. It's my daily driver but fuel mileage is about the same as some 150's I had that were leveled and running larger tires.

If she wanted to get rid of that I’m not sure what we would get to replace it. Love my f150
