South Korea Maps for GPS?

Thanks. I have been there before for 9 months. When the option came up, it was either this, or a place where I would have frequent deployments. With a newborn, I didn't want to miss a bunch of the first few years like I did with my son. This way I am home every night.
I wonder what the resale value for one of these trucks are in Korea. I have no idea what it would go for.

The resale value would be quite good enough than US because there are many demands for these trucks. Don't go to dealers to sell it. You could find great market place online to sell your truck, if your Korean friend could help you.
One thing I should notice regarding driving in Korea with your F150, there would be very difficult to find parking place in downtown, even countryside. Roads lanes narrows. There are many winding road. High driving skill would be required.
Enjoy Korea!

Sell it for a profit, and bring home a car that isn't available in the US but would allow you to bring it back legally (ie. a Skyline) and sell it for a profit again! Then get a new truck!
Also, thank you and your family for your service :-)

A buddy of mine spent a few years there and told me all about the driving over there. Don't take your F-150, it'll get trashed. Between accidents, scooters hitting you, horrible roads and theft, you'll regret it! And, Ford may not honor warranty if you take it out of North America.
I spent 4 years in Germany (2010-2014), and I've deployed to Afghan, and also Turkey during the Syria kickoff, which was not fun, I preferred Afghan... I took my Xterra with me to Germany and it was fine, but I would not take it to Korea...

Yeah they will ship it. And I am going to take it because I don't want it sitting for 2 years while I am making payments. I will be further south, so I am not dealing with Seoul, and honestly, I won't drive it much while I am there because of public transportation. It is my wife and I's only vehicle. And at the end of the day, even though I love the truck, it's still just a truck. If it gets a little dinged up, then oh well. It's not the end of the world.

I spend a decent amount of time in South Korea for my job...mainly in Osan. In fact, I will be back over there around the beginning of the year. I have never seen a 2015+ F150 over there so I will keep a look out for ya!
