Well I longer own my King ranch 2002!!! I now have 2013 supercrew 3.7 Dark Green metallic.

 

Big change! Congrats, buddy.

I want to say I recognize the area too, but that might just be because it's somewhere in Houston and I'd like to think I know it

 

north Houston area Thank you

 

Congrats!

Movin on up to the east side ... er north side haha

Many happy and safe miles!

 

How are you liking it so far? I'm in the same boat. I'm about to move from an older 5.4 to a new 3.7 and I'm nervous about having a V6...

 

Sorry, I'll let him answer too, but they really do drive very much the same. I've driven two supercrew 3.7s and had no idea they had the V6 until afterward. I'm sure I would have noticed had I driven aggressively, but putting around and driving calmly they're not too different and it's pretty difficult to tell. It doesn't cost much more to get a 5.0 though . . .

 

You're right, I drove one yesterday and I was pretty happy with the 3.7.

 

Sounds good. How much less are the 3.7s, if you know?

 

I don't know about the rest of you,, but there is a difference between the 2002 5.4 I had and this 3.7 v6. One big difference is the drive by wire compared to what the 5.4 had.

The 5.4 had better pedal response when you stepped on it from a stop. For me this pick up is a family pick up,, not a Man's pick up.

Otherwise I really can't complain to much about it. It does get up and go once pass the lag it is has from the pedal.

Got mine from Joe Meyers ford,, they had a total 15,000 off of this model truck. If your familiar with that dealership Kmac.

 

If I had a choice id take the 5.4 over the 3.7.

 

I imagine a new air filter and a power chip , would improve throttle response by a ton

 

Did you happen to check out a 5.0 too? I'm wondering what the price difference is, though I imagine it's still at least a few grand. I'm gonna check right now. I know of that dealer though! Just never been there I don't think.

I think part of the problem is that some of the 5.0 XLTs have more options, but there's a big price gap! Looks like a 3.7 is the ticket to a nice Screw on the cheap

 

I believe the 5.0 is about 2-3 grand more, but it varies by dealer.



Especially if you buy one from your old man
