Hey everyone, Just bought a new 2014 5.0 XTR, I use to have a 97' F150 reg cab 4x4 that I had to sell when our second kid was born in 08' and I was reduced to mini van driver

Then I got a Ford Flex in 11' my wife ran a daycare out of the house so she needed a vehicle that would hold a lot of kids, now she's done that and both our kids are in school so I can get a truck again, and I need one bad, we have atv's that we tow and a boat, the Flex would tow my old Checkmate boat no problem but we got a new boat this year and its too heavy for the Flex, it's a good car but time to go, we get the truck tomorrow after the accessories are done, getting a bug deflector, truxedo roll cover and mud flaps put on.

Here's the boat hooked to my Dad's 2013 FX4, I always had to borrow his truck to tow it, I love the way the ecoboost tows, hope the 5.0 isn't too much of a disappointment, lol, I would have got the ecoboost but the only ones they had were loaded right up and way more money, his truck sure is nice tho.

And here's the Flex hooked to the quads, it eats gas like it's going out of style towing them, lol.

I'll post some better pics of the truck when I get it home.

Thanks for looking, John
