First time F-150 Owner here
Hey guys...I'm an old forums vet, but first time here. Thought I'd sign up and chat with you. I'm 43 yrs old, degreed, married, kids, work at a power plant, pretty much the average joe.
Just bought my first F-150...in fact, it's my first full-size. (F150 XLT 4WD, Pueblo Gold, 4.6L 3V, all stock so far) Probably won't do a lot of heavy hauling...more of the weekend warrior and honey-do stuff.
I've owned a Ranger, Frontier, and Tacoma primarily for fuel economy, but thought I'd jump up to the bigs. I drive a lot of miles (highway), so I should get over 20 mpg with this truck from what I've read. Long-time Ford lover and owner, so no need to convince me there.
I look forward to getting to know you and your trucks! I'll try to post some pictures later today if I have time. (I just got it Saturday and wifey has had me busy around the house since then, so I haven't had much time to take pics. )

Sorry for the delay...been out of town working on projects. I work at a very large coal-fired plant in the lower Midwest. I'm in Supply Chain but get out in the plant and surrounding areas quite regularly.

Thanks for the welcome, folks. I'm going to try and take some pictures today if I can. Unfortunately it's raining so the truck may be a bit dirty, but that's okay. Hey, it's a truck, right?
