I built one on fords web site today im like most people not really feeling it but maybe in person I will like. One thing I did see as I built it the tow rating went down to 10,700 lb payload went up to 2,000 lb "Eco motor". my 2013 plat Eco is rated for 11,300 towing and 1,500 payload. I though with the new aluminum fram towing would of gone up too for the 2015

Damnit man!! I need your life and your lift friendly wife. The CFO is only going to allow a level and must keep the stock wheels. Which is fine really as I'm enjoying the tastefulness of this truck. My '06 FX4 was on its way to murdered and bumper replacements.

Ha ha ha!! She's great man. We're gonna keep the f150 another yr or so, then it's getting traded in on a 250. She's already said I can do whatever I want with it.

I really can't justify one either, only reason I don't have one already. But I've been wanting one for yrs, so next truck we'll get one. Who knows, I may not like it and end up going back to a 150, but we're gonna try it.
