New 2007 King Ranch Owner

Hello all,
Due to changing life circumstances, I had to reluctantly trade my 2005 Mustang GT for a brand-new 2007 King Ranch. I think I got a great deal on it (sure hope so, it was still way above what I anticipated paying for a new truck, didn't get a great deal on the stang) but it was incredible inside and out, I had to pull the trigger. I went vehicle shopping today intent on buying the new Chevy Silverado, but ended up driving a Dark Copper King Ranch off the nearby Ford stealership instead. Anyway, hope to get a lot of your forum, it was great being in the mustang forums. Haven't figured out how to post pictures here yet....


EDIT: OK, i think i may have figured out how to get a pic up. Went thru the gallery:

Thanks for the welcome folks. I go back to the stealership tomorrow after work to pick up the key fobs, owners manual, and to get the full tank of gas (couldn't get any of this on a Saturday). They also owe me a full detail but that will have to wait until next week. Spent most of the day today exploring all the cool gadgets that I've never had before (Sirius, Navigation, power memory seats, telescoping mirrors, power rear glass...). can there be a better truck out there? hahaha.

Congratulations and welcome. Are you planning to tow anything? You may want to visit some of the posts regarding tuning and tuners. These vehicles are very pretty but they need a little boot in the tail to be good tow vehicles. That's the only mod I chose to do to my '06 KR and it made quite a difference.
BTW, you chose the right color! Love that copper. Enjoy your new toy.

I have actually been very interested in getting an RV trailer for a long time. My daughter is also wanting me to get one so that we can take camping trips and tailgate at football games. It might take me a year or so before I'm able to be in position to get one but I am starting my research now. Not looking for the high end stuff, something with a queen sized bed, small kitchen, small table, toilet/shower.
