It's a 2010 F150 XLT 4x4.

5.4L with a 6-speed automatic.

The SYNC system is really sweet!

The lease on my 2007 was going to be due in February. I got a letter from Ford that they had incentives to get a new truck and that I could turn mine in. I got something like $6,000 off in incentives.

Those new F150's are one sweet looking truck, especially in that blue. Nice purchase! I thought you were wanting a crew cab this time around though?

I was. I started looking at it realistically and decided that I don't tow enough to warrant the Super Duty diesel, and the deals on the F-150's were to good. I really wanted a crew cab, but the price difference was so much that it wasn't worth it.

This truck has more power than the 2007 did. It looks like it's got 20 more horsepower and I forget what the torque improvement is.

Plus......I really like that blue! I feel like I'm driving TRS-1 when I look out over the hood.

Awesome Truck Jim! I love my 2006 S.Crew, but at times seeing the new look sure makes me wish I had waited and bought new!

Looks good.

The new F-150's are my favorite of all F-150's since '96.
