I like the 15. I'm still in the dark ages with my 99, 189K and counting.
I've had a run of repairs lately, but hopefully should be around the bend with this soon.
How has everyone been? Anyone plan on going to the new car Autoshow this weekend?

I've heard through commercials the 15 Mustang will be there, but nothing that the F150 would be there. I would like to see it.
I have been reading alot about some smaller, more efficient, sporty cars lately. I may be off my rocker, but check out the Kia Forte 5. I honestly think that would be one of my first test drives looking at that market. 205 HP turbo charged, direct injected engine and the styling looks good to me.
Am I insane??

I'm a "former" Omaha resident. Moved over by Dubuque Iowa 3 years ago. Will probably be back in Omaha in a few years. We've been getting nailed with snow and wind just about every 3 days here. Meanwhile, talking with my family & friends in Omaha, it's warm and no snow there! SUCKS to be me right now!!

I know how ya feel man, I'm from Omaha but I go to Iowa State so my friends back there like to rub it in. I got my motorcycle out a couple nice weekends in January, and was hoping it was going to stay that way...oh well. Give's me a reason to go play in the snow with my truck

Haven't been on here for a while - I see its been a few months since the last post! That '15 F150 looks great. I've been out of touch with Ford now that I don't work at the dealer anymore. Looks very nice though!

I've ordered a new 2014 since I last posted in February. Placed an order for a loaded up King Ranch Crew back on March 15th. As of today, I still don't have the damn thing. It was built 4-15 and put into transit 4-22 and was due at the dealer 5-13. I've already biotched to Ford customer service about it and hopefully I hear back from them soon. Frustrating!

Nope. I have a personal rule that I never buy the first years of a new body style.
