The new Beast

Well I traded in the Tundra for this bad boy.. This truck is great, my first Ford and only my second ever american vehcile. not the least bit dissapointed. its way nicer and rides nicer then my last tundra did. pulls more and holds more.

Truck looks great ....but good luck with it. It's a 250 isn't it? Sadly they are rated as one of the worst reliable vehicles built. Terrible shame as they are beasts.

Sorry, I wasn't trying to be an ass, as I genuinely like the looks and capability of this truck. This article is from Forbes, but there are others.

Looks nice but i always think of a contractor or someone who works in construction whenever i see one (Great road presence though, looks huge). Did you feel the Raptor or the smaller one (F-150, i think) wasn't appropriate for your needs?

I didnt think it that way I jsut wanted to read them.. the truck is actually built very well and deisel engines last forever, I dont have any concern that it wont last. its only my second american vehicle ever, but my choices are limited.
btw, this is the 2011 truck that has new tranny and engine, along with a few other changes. will have to wait to see what kinda reliablity and saftey are on this one.
not really sure how you arent safge in this big ass thing though, lol.

No I had a Tundra crewmax that I traded in, I need to be able to pull my boat and 5th wheel. My tundra did not feel like it enjoyed pulling only my boat which is only about 5k pounds
