Traded our 2012 for a 2014 today, and am very happy.
Drove nearly 310 miles each way, over and back the same day. Had them take the Undercover Flex off and put it on the new truck, and kept my nearly new Michelin LTX MS2's as well. Had them put their brand new Wranglers on my trade in. A few observations after driving home:
1. The 2014's dash interface and design is a massive improvement. Very intuitive.
2. The seats are softer leather and the headrests are very much softer......nice!
3. Much more sound deadening material in the new one...very quiet....
4. Glad to be back in a SCREW with doors that don't rattle over every bump like my SCAB trade in.
5. I love the Pale Adobe exterior with the Adobe interior....wow!
6. Fake wood on the dash much improved....actually might be occasionally confused at quick glance with the real thing....actual grain!
7. Electric steering seems to have improved feel and centering effect.
8. Radio speakers MUCH improved. I've never heard Sirius sound so good, and that is saying something.cant wait to hear a CD.....
9. Transmission programming improved....does not seem to get as confused when you take your foot off the gas.
Edit:
10....I forgot to mention my favorite part....the motorized folding and telescoping mirrors!!!! Worth the price of admission all on their own....
Pics tomorrow after a good coat of Collinite 845.

We got the only engine worth considering (and the only one available in the Max Tow)........ The EcoBoost. Try to find a Pale Adobe (exterior and interior) Lariat Plus Max Tow SCREW.......they are a RARE combination.....I am glad that I am not going to see myself coming and going like we did with the Plat White, although I still like that color.

I do think that the Max Tow SCREW EB with 10 ply tires will be a very comfortable tow vehicle, as the SCAB I had did great as well.

The biggest difference in towing for us was converting to Michelin LTX 10 plys. This is our third truck, and the first one was a SCREW 5.4, but with 4 plys.

Congrats on reaching for your checkbook for that sweet new truck!
I'm sure enjoying my own 2014 with no regrets having ordered the 6.2L.
Makes me smile when I hear that muted rumble under the floorboard...
